Hi my Name is

CAPONE

I've Been Here Since: 2009-09-23
DOB: Sept. 2002 approx.
Gender: Male
Size: 70 lbs.

My Behavior:

Imagine you are a happy family. You have a baby on the way and a faithful four legged companion of 7 years at your side. Then the bad economy hits and you find yourself struggling to save your home. Reality hits too fast and the foreclosure notice comes and despite your battle, its time to leave. As you begin to pack up the house and look for a place to live, you realize that no one will rent to someone who owns a Pit Bull. You try to explain that he's an older dog and he is very well behaved and quiet. No one cares and you are down to the final day. You make that dreaded drive to the city shelter and within seconds of walking your loving friend into the noisy building, he begins to tremble and you see the fear in his eyes. He can smell the death and can hear the frantic barking of hundreds of desperate dogs. Your pregnant wife begins to cry and you can't take it any longer and you quickly leave with your canine buddy at your side. Now what? The three of you are camped out in the U-Haul truck in front of what used to be your home. The sun is setting and you've made tons of calls to various rescue groups. As the sun starts to set behind the mountains, the call comes in…..its Villalobos and they've agreed to take Capone. And though we are not exactly what Capone can call "home", your's is. Please give this gentle boy the ending to this story that we all need to have in these hard times.

He loves his blankie, tennis ball and car rides.  One of Tania and Mariahs favorites,  cos according to them, he's one hell of a snuggler.
 

Kids: great, very gentle

Help Support one of our Dogs

We have so many dogs that could use a little help to not only get them through each day but also help the non-profit keep our doors open. You can either pick one of our PIT PALS or pick a dog from our DOGS FOR ADOPTION. Remember, by doing this, you can come out and visit your sponsored Pit Bull in person and spend the day together. Be that special person in their life and show them that someone cares more about them, than the former owner who dumped them here. Help us, to help them. If you have any question please use our Contact Page.

    I just wanted to know why you cant adopt a dog to a home that already has a dog? I am actually looking for a companion for my puppy. I love this dog.

    This dog is the cutest dog i’ve ever seen! I love pitbulls and i watch the show all the time! I just hate how people blame this wonderful breed, these dogs are the most loyal dogs ever! My uncle owned a dog before he passed and he is the most loving dog ever, he acts like a lap dog :) I just love what tia and her family do for these dogs <3 Thank you!

Got something to say?
