Celebrate with us!
Join us as we celebrate a decade of rescue on North Texas Giving Day –
September 18, 2025!
North Texas Giving Day is our most important fundraiser of the year, fueling our mission to rescue, rehabilitate, and advocate for bully breeds all year long. The funds raised not only help us save the lives of some of the most vulnerable and at-risk dogs, but also power our community support programs, iRehome and iStayHome, which provide resources to families so dogs can stay in loving homes and out of overcrowded shelters.

The Love Pit Mission
Our mission is to save bully breeds through responsible rescue, rehabilitation, education, and advocacy. Our vision is to create a better world for all dogs, their families, and communities, free of discrimination.
Fostering Saves Them.
It Changes You.
You’ll watch a rescue dog heal, grow, and transform while preparing them for their forever family. And in return, you’ll gain unconditional love, purpose, and the fulfillment of knowing you saved a life.
Adopt and Be Their Hero.
Break the stereotype, become an advocate, experience the love, and give a bully breed the forever home they deserve.
A Second Chance,
the Right Way.
Rehoming isn't easy, and we're here to help without judgment. iRehome keeps bully breeds out of shelters by keeping them in safe, loving homes
Your Gift Saves Lives.
Your support provides critical medical care, supplies, training, and advocacy to ensure these dogs get a chance at a better life.
The Impact of Compassion:
By the Numbers
By saving dogs from shelters, providing essential training and rehabilitation, and educating the public, we’re reducing surrender rates, strengthening the human-dog bond, and breaking stereotypes. Every adoption is more than a rescue—it’s a ripple effect that fosters responsible pet ownership, promotes advocacy, and builds a future where bully breeds are valued, not feared.

"We adopted our Rhett from The Love Pit in June of 2022. The adoption process was smooth & the people we worked with were wonderful. We will 100% adopt from The Love Pit again & I always recommend them to everyone. My daughter wishes we lived closer so we could go volunteer."
