The Barbary Coast Bull Terrier Rescues

Unfortunately, many people obtain their dogs without doing any kind of real research into a breed's characteristics and needs, but choose solely on appearance or popularity. Being the hard-headed, energetic, fun-loving dogs they are, Bull Terriers do not fit well into all households or family situations.

There are people who have had a BT and found out that this breed is not the right one for them, and either contacted a Bull Terrier Rescue organization or turned their BT in at a shelter. Some must be given up due to unforeseen family circumstances (divorce, death, move, etc.).

There are also those unfortunate dogs who have been owned by people who abused them or allowed them to wander to the point that they have been impounded. Regardless of the circumstances, these dogs are in need of new homes and people that will give them the love and attention they deserve.

Rescue organizations make every effort to obtain and assess these less fortunate of our breed, and find suitable homes for those who are likely candidates for family situations. The volunteers who work in Bull Terrier Rescue have a lot of experience in the breed and in placing rescued dogs. Their job is to match dogs and families where a successful relationship seems the most promising, and they are happy to help you decide if Rescue is a good option for your household.
