My niece in Northern California adopted an 8 week old pitt bull. She was the 8th person who had applied to adopt Bella.

The Humane Society had her fill out a very extensive application and she had to wait some time before she was approved for adoption.

They told her all of the other applicants clearly wanted the pup as a fighting dog - so they were all turned down.

Sadly Bella only lived for three years...........cancer took her far too soon.
