Woof! Meow! One thing before you go…
Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
Shelters are often inundated with pet surrenders, and do not want to provide a simple outlet that takes away the obligation of responsible pet ownership. Therefore, they would prefer that people try hard to find a solution before resorting to surrendering their pet to a shelter. If you must find a new home for a pet, please try posting to our adoption portal before placing the burden on the shelter. Direct adoptions work well and allow everyone to share in the accountability of their community!

Rescue Pit is a centralized network of like-minded people. We wish to promote public awareness of these misunderstood dogs through a collected and unified front. Education is a must and finding loving homes for these dogs is our top priority. It’s not just about the rescue – it’s about education, caring, saving lives, and giving dogs a real home. When these things come together more lives can be saved.
Our Values
*Transparency and Compassion
The public wants to know where the money they donate is being spent, how much money is being raised, and how many dogs’ lives we are changing for the better. Everything Rescue Pit does will be visible to the public, and anyone who asks questions will get answers. The rescue world is difficult. Some days are filled with great joy while others are filled with difficult decisions. No matter the day, we will always do our best to respond to your questions, and make our decisions, with compassion and understanding.
*Timeliness
Response time is critical to us. Standards are set for responding to emails, inquiries, partnerships, and applications. The faster we work, the more dogs we can save.
*Financial Sustainability
Everything we do is made possible through donations and fundraising events. This requires not only a need to bring in more money but a drive to build relationships that can be sustained long term.
*Mutual Selection
We believe that a potential adopter’s connection with a dog is just as important as a dog’s fit into a potential adopter’s home. As a foster based rescue, our foster parents are in a unique position to take part in this selection process. And no matter how much time passes, dogs that come into Rescue Pit will always be a part of Rescue Pit, whether they’re being fostered or have been adopted, should the need ever arise.
*Ethical Care
From care to training, we will advocate for pain-free and fear-free lives for our dogs and the community dogs.

Do you need to find a loving home for your pet?
No-kill shelters do wonderful work, but as a result, are often inundated with pet surrenders. In the unfortunate scenario that you have to find a new home for your pet, please read through the rehoming solution and articles on this page before contacting the shelter.
