Home needed for Pitbull
Neicy:
Need advice on how to safely place my brothers pitbull.
My brothers body was found 01/10/2008, he had been in a snowmobile accident in front of his home and stumbled into his garage and collapsed. He was 41. His pitbull was upstairs in his crate. The neighbors found my brother three days later :( I have his dog. He is the sweetest thing! He is not neutered so I am having that done. He was very thin from being in his crate with no food or water but he is eating now and gaining weight.
He is good with my kids, he seems fine with other dogs (non agressive). He touched noses with my cat and the cat ran away and he didnt react. He can sit, speak, lay down, is learning to heal. He is crate trained so doesnt have accidents.
He is a beautiful dark brindle.....
I ahve two dogs, one of which is a 4 mo old femal Border Collie which is why I cant give him run of the house with my two dogs yet.
Where can I post or get the word out? I dont want fighters or weirdos getting my brothers dog. He was everything to him.
Hes only 1 year old :(

They will not allow me to post him until his neuter is complete (completely understand). I will NOT put him in a shelter. OF all things he needs is to be stuck in a cage with a cement outdoor after all he has been through.
He will live with me until I can find a place for him.
Thank you for the condolences, its been the hardest thing I have ever dealt with. I am trying to stay focused and get things settled for his dogs sake and mine.

In case anyone is thinking I am a troll making all this up here is my brothers obit. I know that sometimes I disbelieve horrible stories.....I only wish this one was made up :(

Unfortunately there are so many pitt bulls and they have been given such a bad rap. There really is an over population of them. Yesterday I was at the city pound and they were the breed that took over the pound I would say 80% of the dogs were pitt or pitt mix. I have rehomed many dogs and pitt bulls are tough to place you must know the breed just like any other dog. If you can hold out your best bet would be to ask people you know that you have this wonderful pitt and need to find a loving home for him place a flyer up at your vet if they will let you. Do not be in a hurry to give him to anyone make sure the person you place him with understands if it doesn’t work out they are to return the dog to you and only you. Let them know you will check on the dog to make sure he is working out. This way they know they know you care about the dogs well being. I have a rescue pitt and he is the biggest love bug he could care less about the mail man or UPS person he loves kids and car rides. He has never known anything but love and that is the way it should be! Hope this helps! Marina
