My personality

My story

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

Just over one year old. This girl is a total character.

Very affectionate, silly and full of personality. Pie was raised from puppyhood in a family until they lost their housing. She was spoiled in her former home, and clearly enjoyed being the center of attention when she was with them, so the transition to our rules and boundaries was a bit of a shock to her at first. She was used to getting she wants, but we’ve worked out some new agreements since that doesn’t happen around here. :-) Compliance is heavily rewarded here and she’s since learned that patience and the ever-important skill of ‘WAIT!’ brings good all things. A great discovery!

She accepts down time in her kennel now, happy chewing a bone or lying in the sun, and is doing well in group training classes and leash work.

She has a Rough & Rowdy play style with other dogs (See our Insta for videos badrap_advocacy) Enjoys chasing a ball and doing big happy zoomies. Knows ‘Sit’ ‘Place’ ‘Wait’ and has great eye contact.

Her future family will end up with a lot of laughs and good stories with this girl. Please drop us an email if her face speaks to you.

Additional adoption info

So, you've been thinking about adopting
a Blocky headed dog - Pit Bull or otherwise!

As you may have gathered from reading through our website, society isn't always kind to pit bull owners. Breed bias is still a thing and pit bulls AND their owners can feel a lot of pressure to be 'perfect.' What a project! Because we know how challenging it can be to live under other peoples' microscopes we ask that you fulfill these requirements in order to adopt one of our dogs:

1. Be at least 21 years old
We occasionally make exceptions for younger, rock solid applicants.
2. Be Local to the SF Bay Area.
Or, be willing to drive here to meet in person. We don't ship dogs.
3. Fill Out an Application and impress us with your dog savvy!
4. Must Own or Have Landlord Approval. Yes, we'll check.
5. Chat with one of our Reps.
6. Show that you have a clear understanding of the Breed Challenges
7. Agree to take a video of your home and yard as part of a 'home visit.'
8. Everyone in your Household needs to be ready for the adoption too. Yeah, we'll check.
9. Pay a $250 Adoption Donation Fee
10. Sign a Legally Binding Adoption Contract

Note: We rarely place same-sex large breed dogs including Pit Bulls in the same home. Apartments/Townhouses are fine, but if you have a backyard, we want to see a solid fence and a safe environment.

In return, you'll get a get you can brag about for life. All our dogs come with basic obedience training (which you get to continue free for the life of the dog!), support from a large group of pit bull owners and opportunities to help our cause through educational events and other fun activities.

Join us! We look forward to working with you!
