Hi my Name is
BUG
DOB: Sept. 2002 approx.
Gender: Female
Size: Big gal
My Behavior:
This gal has won my heart. I absolutely adore her. She is the true story of survival. Police raided the property she was on and when they saw a "vicious" Pit Bull mix waddling out, they pumped 3 bullets into her!!!! Somehow this gal survived after having emergency life saving surgery. Bug has gotten to be one of the most grateful dogs I've ever encountered. She is PERFECT in the house never making a mess or even a peep. She loves to roll on her back and wiggle and waggle until she scratches that itch. We want to thank Bug's guardian angel, actor Michael Berryman for saving her life. She is absolutely a treasure.

Help Support one of our DogsWe 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.

she’s so cute!! i wish that i could live near you and come and see the dogs every day and become a foster house for those who can not fit at your place! I LOVE PIT BULLS AND I LOVE YOUR SHOW!
Ladybug is a real sweetheart. She loves to walk. A real “lady”, She’s also very gentle with my 10-year-old son. He loves her.
So she’s been adopted? D:
I just had the pleasure to walk her and she was amazing! She walks so good and all she wants to do is cuddle when you sit near her. Shes one amazing lady and very fun to play with.
I Would Love To Have This Amazing Girl As Part Of My Family But I Live In Kentucky & I Have 3 Cats 2 Small Dogs & My Roommate Has A Dog As Well. So We Have 6 In Our Furry Family.
I Really Hope Someone Takes This Angel Home & Loves Her As Much As I Love My Fur-Kids
I think Tia is an amazing person for what she does, and I think her kids are amazing for all the help they do for her. This show inspires me for the fact that it shows everyone does deserve a second chance even animals. I absolutely love this show and other then Tia and her daughters my absolute favorite person are both of her sons!!
i just submitted my adoption application if alabama is not the right fit for me my second choice would be this girl on the profile it sayd isnt good with dogs cats or kids but i guess that was a mix up
So I’ve heard wonderful things about this rescue from numerous other organizations who deal with pit bulls.
I cannot find an email to actually touch base with anyone so I guess this is what I would have written in an email:
This is Stacie from the Humboldt County Animal Shelter in Mckinleyville, CA! Our shelter is crammed full of beautiful, sweet tempered pit bulls and we need help to get them out before we have to consider euthanasia due to lack of space! (Feel free to email me back for more information on each.)
Each have such different personalities and each are just so wonderful in their own way. None of them deserve to be put down so I am trying so hard to transfer them to other facilities who have luck in placing them into caring, forever homes.
Do you have room at your facility to help us?
Thank you so much for your consideration!
–Stacie Jensen (former last name Shelter)

awww!!! how sad but amazingly happy!!! she’s adorable, and if my dad would let me get here, i’d adopt her!!!
to tia and the crew,
may god bless you everyday for you doing what you do each and everyday. i watch pitbulls & parolees when it comes on. and when you moved into your new home and the city council rejected your proposal, it broke m heart to see you move all your “babies” to a better location, then to move them back.

Love the work you do with these amazing animals! As an owner of an unbelievable pit bull terrier named “RAIDER”, I was immediately smitten with him and his “MAGIC” ! Having owned Labrador Retrievers my whole life,when a friend had a new puppy for sale and wouldn’t tell me what kind of dog he was,you can imagine my surprise when I saw this tiny pit bull growling while tearing up a toy bigger than he was! My husband and I sat and played on the floor with him for awhile and watched and fell in love. We took him home,with the option to return him the next day if our 2 much older ,yellow labs did not approve. Then came the magic……he was accepted almost immediately and gave “NEW LIFE” to our dogs and our home.Raider is 6 now,the old girl lab passed 2 yrs. ago and the boy lab is 15 now! Without Raider in his life he would have been gone by now. I am here to say that if we ever decide to get another dog it will be a pit bull,Raider has converted me to his breed forever ! There is nothing like the love of a pitbull ! If I ever strike it rich Tia,you and your ranch will be first on the list,WELL make that 2nd…HA HA! (2 SONS FIRST) to see my gratitude! SLOPPY PITTY KISSES from us in New Hampshire where we practice our motto “LIVE FREE OR DIE”!
is Ladybug adopted. Just lost my own LUCKY due to cancer after 15years of having a pit bull, LIKE SOMETHING MISSING IN YOUR LIFE AFTER SUCH A LONG TIME OF HAVING A BUDDY.She is abosutely beautiful.
ladybug is an awesome little lady! I had the priveledge of walking her during my time at bully boot camp this week. She would be an awesome addition to someone’s home.
shes so gorgous
hej Tia Maria
jag bor i Sverige tyver annars skulle jag vilja adoptera en hund från er . Men jag undrar om jag kan hjälpa till på något sätt jag älskar att
sy kan jag sy något till hundarna något som håller mer än en vecka. jag tycker om tv programmet om er och tycker att ni gör ett bra jobb med både hundar och med killarna . jag hoppas de löser sig med din man,de var orättvist de som hände men försök att inte jobba för mycket du ska se att det fixar sig. mvh och kramar i massor Ulla Rolandsson
ps kommer nog att köpa en luvtröja eller en t shirt
my daughter has a rottweiler and needs a home please call me 916 971 9306
i need a home for my daughters rottweiler within a week please call me at 916 971 9306
hi again i wrote you about an hour ago and didn’t have time to explain the whole situation with my daughters dog Beautiful.
Beautiful is a 7 yr old female rottweiler, she would be great for a family, she loves people, she’s good with other dogs and i ok with cats.
my daughter lost her home and must move by the first of next mo., she has been looking for a home for her for the past few months to no success, it seems as if no one wants an older dog, we would hate to see sweet beautiful go to the county or spca.
my grand children and i watch your show every time its on,i really think the second changes you give the men and the dogs is great, i know how it is i have one son that just got off of parole and another that is in prison for another 12 yrs.
hope to hear from you soon
God Bless

to whom it may it concern .iam dating a woman stronger than she knows , but unlike dogs horses animals in general she lives in the past and lets everything in the past effect. her future.she has three daughters that I would do anything in the world for. I know everyone has there own problems but if you could find the time. they look. up to you and you and your daughters and people at. you’re ranch and dogs most of all. I don’t ever ask for help. but if you have a minute or an ear I would greatly. appreciate it. mike (916)412-3111. I know you’re busy thanks for reading
I want a pitbull so bad, if I lived closer she is the one I choose. She sounds wonderful!
I have a beautiful pit bull that’s a year old and needs a home. He’s very playful and loves kids. If I bring him to a pound around here there just going to put him down and not even bother to get to know him. I don’t want that to happy. My mother in law has cancer and can’t take care of him anymore she doesn’t have the energy like she use to. I need your help. Please get back to me
Our family owned a beautiful neutered pit for about 7 yrs. We got him as a puppy. His name was Brutus. He was adopted out through private party when we could no longer keep him, however his new home didn’t work out and he found himself to be a resident at Sammy’s friends of Nevada county, CA
Rumor has it that he was adopted for the program of pittbulls and parollies. I’m only curious because it would wonderful to know that he is in the hands of those who would understand him.
We loved him and he loved us but he was very animal aggressive therefore a huge liability living on a ranch and living next to ranches. Thank you for your time…
Wanted her for about a year now
