"Bad" Dogs

Being an All Breed Rescue, we get called on to help the dogs most in need, the mixed breeds, the breeds deemed "bad", the tough to place dogs.  The dog most in need of our help and compassion at the current time, is the American Pitbull Terrier.  The combination of the media, lack of knowledge and irresponsible pet owners have caused this breed to be misunderstood and wrongfully deemed "dangerous".  Those who know the breed, know differently.  Here are some stories of dogs doing great things:

Cesar Milan Training Methods

American Humane's perspective on Cesar Milan's training methods. Dog Whisperer

"Rescue Angels"
Tail tucked between your legs,
Confusion in your eyes -
I know it's hard to understand
That someone heard your cries.

When loneliness is all you know
And pain is all you feel
And no one can be trusted,
And hunger's all too real...

That's the time the Lord sees you
And lets you know He's there
That's when He sends His messengers
The hearts that love and care.


Yes, rescuers are angels
You cannot see their wings,
They keep them neatly folded
As they do their caring things.

The medicine to make you well
Good food to make you strong,
And finally to help you learn
That hugs are never wrong.

The perfect place then must be found
The home where you can live
Secure and safe and happy
With joy to get and give.

When you reach your Forever Home,
Your place to feel whole,
The Angels smile, and off they go
To save another soul.
