Housing &

losing your home

Sadly many families have been forced to leave their homes due to loss of employment and mortgage issues. Many cherished family pets have found themselves abandoned and on the street as a result. To address this unfortunate situation, we've compiled links that may be helpful to people in need of assistance with their mortgage (see Hope Now) and pet-friendly housing. We've also included a list of pit bull-friendly insurance companies and links for deployed military looking for a temporary home for their pet(s).

Check with an insurance agent who deals with various companies.  Perhaps the agent can locate someone that does not have breed restrictions. Call the state's Insurance Commission for referrals to companies without restrictions.

Rehoming A Pit Bull
Finding a safe, responsible home for a pit bull takes 6-12 months, on average. Many people want pit bulls for breeding or fighting or as yard/guard dogs. Doing the following will help ensure a pit bull finds a good home:
  • Spay/neuter the dog prior to adoption.
  • Ask for and check veterinary references.
  • Do not adopt to anyone under 25 years of age.
  • Give preference to homeowners.
  • Conduct a home visit.
  • Adopt pit bulls as only pets or with a compatible dog of the opposite sex.
  • Be mindful of breed-specific legislation.
  • Ask an adoption fee of at least $100.00
