My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Bailey would be a perfect companion for someone looking for a highly trained and obedient small/medium bully mix. She has mastered fetch, recall, and all basic commands and then some. We highly recommend her in a single dog home; she generally ignores other dogs, but doesn't appreciate them in her space.

She loves water, will play fetch until she drops, and also listens exceptionally well and would LOVE being your #1 inside hang out buddy. She would be wonderful in a home where she can be a fly on the wall as a part of your daily routine; she does well in and out of a crate, in and out of a kennel or yard (fenced or not fenced [while supervised]), and is a very low maintenance gal.

She has been taking daily Prozac for several years to help with her anxiety. From our experience with her, so far, the medication helps take the edge off when she is around other dogs. Consult with your vet about weaning her off slowly, should the situation be appropriate.

Additional adoption info

We pride ourselves in having an easy to navigate and qualify adoption process, so long as you meet the requirements of our program mission.

We understand that pet adoptions can feel complicated and time consuming, which is why we've worked hard to remove many of the typical obstacles you may find in other rescue adoption processes.

Due to the nature of our adoptions and our Mission, our adoptions fees are based on a sliding scale, from $0-$300. In addition, we do accept donations and adoption sponsors. What we really ask for is that you provide a loving, stable home, and tell your friends about our mission. Sharing is caring!

Go meet their pets

We welcome meet and greets by appointment, Sunday through Tuesday, every week. We are very flexible with the time of day and can accommodate most schedules. Our only ask is that you are prepared for many “welcomes smiles and barks” from the big dogs. If for any reason you might feel uncomfortable in such an environment with 15+ large pit bull type dogs within visible range (secured, but nearby), no problem! Just let us know in advance, and we’ll make sure to accommodate.

More about this rescue

We are a bully breed dog rescue and sanctuary, in Shiner, TX, centrally located between Houston, San Antonio, and Austin. As avid bully breed lovers and an incorporated Texas non-profit, we go above and beyond the call of duty to maintain a level of care for every dog here. We are committed to rescuing and rehabilitating bully breeds and mixes, providing them with a second chance at life. By providing a safe and nurturing environment, we aim to give bully breeds an opportunity to thrive, while challenging negative stereotypes and promoting responsible ownership, either here at the sanctuary or through rehoming with intentional adoptions to veterans, active duty military families, and people with disabilities or mental health conditions.
