Reno - ADOPTED
After Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Kanab, Utah my favorite organization in the entire United States is PittieLove Rescue in Framingham, MA which is tiny in comparrison wtih BF but they have an equally BIG heart.
The little dog in the window ha! ha! is Reno his mom was killed by a car when he was only 3 weeks old. He is now 16 weeks old and looking for a loving home. Could it be yours?
PittieLove Rescue Inc. is an all volunteer 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to finding wonderful forever homes for Pit bulls and Pit bull mixes that may not have had the best start in life. They have placed over 100 Pit bulls into loving homes since 2005; a truly remarkable feat. If we had a “rescue dogs” award they would win it hands down. Many of their dogs come from shelters where their time is running short or where staff wants to be sure the dog is placed responsibly. They also work with other rescue organizations and support Animal Control Officers in Massachusetts who often have Pit bulls in need of loving homes.
The organization is run by a dedicated core of volunteers who understand what it means to care for all of the many breeds of dogs that are known collectively as Pit bulls. The backbone of PittieLove Rescue however is its foster homes which allow them to “custom fit” their dogs to the homes they are going to live in. When PittieLove Rescue accepts a Pit bull these dogs make their way to their temporary home and live a pampered life that many have never experienced before. In this setting much can be learned about the temperament, likes and dislikes, and little quirks a dog may have. (See the story on Lenny updated November 6th) For example, does the dog like cats or other family pets? It’s a great service that they provide along with comfortable beds for the now happy Pit bulls!
PittieLove Rescue does all it can as an organization to make sure that Pit bulls get the love and respect they deserve. They attend many events around the New England region where they share their knowledge of Pit Bull type breeds and pass out information to attendees of these events. They often bring adoptable Pit bulls along too to help demonstrate the true nature of their rescued canine companions. They do all of this to educate the public about the remarkable traits of Pit bulls type dogs, their love for people and their clown like personalities. They hope the presence of their dogs will diffuse the hype and myths that are propagated by a media that looks to vilify the very dogs that we all love so much. I LOVE PITTIELOVE RESCUE!!!!
