Question: Why are there more pit bulls than any other type of dog in local animal shelters?

Answer: We are painfully aware of the incredible number of pit bull terriers in our community. About 80% of the dogs abandoned on the street are pit bulls. At this time, there are no laws against owners allowing their pit bulls to over breed. The only crime committed is against the dogs themselves. There are simply far more pit bulls than responsible homes for them. Many are losing their lives, both on the streets and in shelters as a result.
