Lexington Pit Crew Dog rescue in Lexington, KY

Lexington Pit Crew aims to inform and educate the public about breeds often unfairly labeled as vicious and dangerous. Our goal is to build a positive reputation for dogs that might otherwise be deemed unadoptable solely based on their breed. Over the past eight years, LPC has rescued thousands of dogs. This success is a team effort, driven by our dedicated volunteers. These volunteers have families, paying jobs, and various other responsibilities, yet they choose to volunteer because they are passionate about our cause. They give their time because they value the lives of the defenseless animals we fight for every day.
