Profile Information

Introduce Yourself

Pacific Northwest Pit Bull Rescue was formed in July of 2006 in an effort to support the growing need of rescue, education and adoption of the pit bull breed in the community.

We rescue, foster, rehabilitate and adopt out pit bulls that we believe truly are breed ambassadors. We do not take owner surrenders, all of our dogs come from death row and have faced euthanasia in area shelters.

While we love the breed, we accept that not all pit bulls are good candidates for adoption. It is for that reason we are selective on the dogs that we choose to be a part of our program. Abuse, neglect, and poor breeding/genetics, resulting in health and temperament problems are just some of the things that can be an issue with this breed. There are tens of thousands of pit bulls in need in shelters across the country and beyond, but choosing the best of the best is for the betterment of the breed as a whole and for the community that we live and work in.

We are combating the trouble that faces the breed that we love so much not with the attitude that we can “save them all”, but that we can save the few that can become true ambassadors for the breed and stand beside us as we fight BSL and say “Punish the Deed, Not the Breed!”

We advocate responsible pet ownership for all breeds and strive to provide current and future pit bull owners, as well as the general public with the TRUTH about pit bulls and how we can stop what has truly become an epidemic, BSL (breed specific legislation).

If you love your dog, please be a responsible owner, spay and neuter your pet, educate yourself, then stand up with us and FIGHT for our dogs.

I personally own three American Pit Bull Terriers... Sierra, Moxie and Rio.

At 6:38pm on January 6, 2009, Ben Williams said…: Tommy was dumped at Champoeg State Park on the 16th of December, my wife and I found him on the 17th. Owner is long gone. He needs a good home--we've already got three yellow labs, and can't handle a 4th. He's neutered, house broked, leash trained, has basic obedience training, loves people and our other dogs-is a little sweetheart. 53 poungs, 19 inches at the shoulder.

At 12:09am on January 1, 2009, Kristina - The Active Canine said…: 2-5 works for me!! yes i am going to both screenings, the one at Bridgeport in on the 7th at 7pm and they told me to get their around 6:15 and then the one at Tigard Cinemas in on the 10th at 10:30pm, they told me to get their around 9:45am. iF you have an adoption book that would be great, and you are welcome to bring a dog. The promoter told me that she wasn't sure the dogs would be allowed to stay in the theater during the screening, so we may have to remove them then, but she wasn't sure. I am bringing my dog in gear from my store...so if you wanted to bring a Pit that is available for adoption that would be great! my cell number is 503-866-7843, feel free to call me if you wish! :) thanks again and i will update my website with the adoption times for the adoption event. thanks again! :)
