I live in the Los Angeles area. My neighbor has two red-nosed pitbulls, Bonnie and Clyde. They are medium-size dogs and brother and sister. They were rescued when their mother got killed by a car and had to be bottle fed as little puppies. The problem is that their owner (my neighbors grandson) did not think his dogs were as interesting once they were full-grown. Now grandson has moved out of grandmas house and grandma can't really handle taking care of the dogs.
Bonnie and Clyde have lived outside their whole life. Right now, they are tied up outside with chains. This is because Clyde is really smart and strong. He digs underneath the fence and moves the bricks away so he can get out. He doesnot really go anywhere, but he just wanders around the end of the block to visit people. He and Bonnie are so sweet, I just cannot tell you. Nor can I tell you how many times the neighbors and I have found Clyde walking down the street and we just yell out, "Clyde" and he puts his head down and comes right up to us and we bring him home. It is a really sad situation. Another neighbor of mine wants to call SPCA, but I know that Bonnie and Clyde will just end up in the pound, which means certain death.
I don't have a lot of time to search out local rescues, etc. When I have done it in the past, I have not received a response. I did find one posting from CA on petfinders for someone who wanted a pit bull. But I am so scared of people who want a pit for the wrong reason. Bonnie and Clyde are lovers, not fighters. They love people and need a home with attention, love and a real shelter. Can anyone help???
Thank you so much.

The grandparents aren't active enough to take the dogs for a walk or two and keep them inside? I have a feeling the grandson is going to have to learn about responsibilty some day.
