About Us
AKA Pit Bull Rescue
AKAPBR is a small rescue operation for pit bull type dogs. The organization was formed by shelter workers, animal control officers, and lovers of the breed and has been rescuing and rehoming dogs for about 8 years. All of our dogs are in foster homes and will be introduced to the adopter and their family after we receive an application. We do screen adopters with criminal background checks and home visits, if this concerns you for any reason, you may not want to apply! We are serious about finding permanent homes for our rescued dogs and we ask that you consider the lifetime commitment you will be making by adopting from us.
**PLEASE EMAIL US FOR AN ADOPTION APPLICATION**

NEVER LET YOUR DOG OUTSIDE UNATTENDED.
NEVER LET YOUR DOG OFF LEASH ANYWHERE.
