Raphael

Pit Bull Terrier

Available

Raphael, a sweet dog who has made remarkable progress with his trainer, is now ready to find his forever home. He loves all treats and loves to play fetch. When he first arrived, he had been through so much and struggled to trust others, so he couldn’t be around dogs. However, he is now happy to meet people and could even go on pack walks with other dogs. Despite his rough start, Raphael is a good boy.

Callum

Pit Bull Terrier

Available

Callum is a lover boy!  He loves to be by your side and will follow you around the house.  He melts into you while sitting close.  He loves going for walks and is great in the car.  He loves getting his zoomies out and runs laps around the backyard.  He is super athletic and his build is on the small side.  He gets compliments wherever he goes because he has beautiful eyes.  When we picked him up from the shelter he was extremely head-shy and was scared to walk through doorways.  He has come along way.  He is happy once he knows he is safe.  Callum would do best with someone who is home a lot and would prefer to be an only dog.  Has some separation anxiety.  Would do wonderful in an agility class.  He can jump (bounce) high.  He has a high prey drive.

Bryce

Pit Bull Terrier

Available

Very bubbly, sweet and playful. He's definitely young and sometimes acts like a puppy. He's so friendly he wants to say hello to everyone, all dogs and people. We're still training him to not jump on people but he gets very excited when people walk in the door.  He'd do great in a house with or with out kids, and loves playing with other dogs. He's still a tad mouthy but we are working on it. He's a good walker, he just gets distracted easily. He's honestly the ideal dog for apartments, houses, etc. He also loves cuddling on the couch after some play time.

Banderita

Pit Bull Terrier

Available

Banderita is a super playful and very happy dog. There is not a mean bone in her body. She gets along well with my other rescue dog Ellie. They are constantly playing so Banderita would probably annoy an older dog that isn’t as into playing. She is about 90% house trained. Walks ok on the leash but she is just over a year old so she is still learning.


If you are interested in Banderita please fill out an adoption application at: https://www.dogsaredeservingrescue.com/adopt

Junior

Pit Bull Terrier

Available

Junior is a playful, goofy boy who loves to make us laugh. He enjoys playing with our cat and dog, chasing balls, chewing bones, wrestling, going for walks, and snuggling. He has a heart FULL of love to give. Junior is a shy guy by nature and can still be easily startled, so he needs patient people who understand he will need time and space to come out of his shell, build trust, and gain confidence. Once he feels secure, he’ll reward you with endless affection, loyal companionship, and plenty of silly antics.

Duke

Mastiff

Available

Meet Duke! A two year old Mastiff mix that is looking for his forever family. In the home he is house broken, crate trained, and loves to be with his humans. He's very strong on leash and tends to jump and get a little mouthy when he plays or gets excited. A requirement would be no children under 10.  He can, however, tend to get too excited and possessive over toys so a family that can maintain boundaries in their home would be required. As for cats... this big boy LOVES them and would have no problem sharing his space with a dog.

Lucy

Pit Bull

Available

Affectionate,silly, and a bit skiddish. Lucy has tons of love to give and once she gets comfortable is a total snuggle buddy. Don't let the cuddly side fool you because she's also always down for some fetch, with a weakness for tennis balls. She will need a slow introduction to other dogs and should probably live in a cat free home. She wants to be everybody's friend and will show that with a toothy smile.

Everest

Pit Bull

Available

Everest is a sweet, affectionate pup who loves being close to his favorite people — he’ll happily be your shadow and sidekick and often rests his head in your hands for the ultimate snuggle. He’s steadily building confidence every day and is curious about the world around him, always ready to explore at his own pace.

Everest has plenty of puppy energy and loves to hop around in the backyard like a little bunny. He enjoys his walks, meeting other pups, and playing once he settles in. He’s also very well house-trained and understands “no,” so he balances fun with good manners.

Everest is especially fond of calm moments and gentle interaction. He thrives in a loving, patient home where he can feel safe and supported while he grows braver and more adventurous. He enjoys quiet affection, cozy laps, and bonding with someone who will give him the time he needs to shine.

Everest would do best in a home where he can be the center of attention or with other dogs in the family to continue building confidence, since he’s great with his canine friends. If you’re looking for a devoted companion who will fill your heart with warmth and loyalty, Everest just might be your perfect match!

Adoption Process

Adoption Takes Thought & Patience.I know you are excited about the thought of getting a new pup. But before you make this decision, we ask that you have done the following:

  • Spoken with all members of your household and come to mutual agreement.

  • Discussed the new addition with your home owner’s association or landlord if applicable.

  • Experience the breed yourself.


Save up! Dogs, especially Bullies are not an inexpensive breed and having a solid savings account that has an emergency fund is essential.

Before you apply to adopt, please read about how the process works.

Principle #1:
First and foremost, we receive many applications on some dogs. This allows us to be selective to ensure that our dogs are going to a perfect home. If you are not chosen to adopt, please do not be angry, we work in the best interests of the dogs, and we know what they need best. This doesn’t mean you don’t have a good home. It just means there is a better fit in our applicant base.

Principle #2:
Not all homes are right for rescues, especially pitbulls. Each application is put through a rigorous review process. which may take some time. It must meet several important criteria through multiple phases of review. If application is approved a home visit and if applicable a meet and greet with resident animals will be scheduled.

The adoption fee includes: Negative heartworm and fecal test, up-to-date vaccinations, spay/neuter, microchip and up-to-date on Flea/Tick and Heartworm Preventatives.
