Right now there are about 40 pitbulls there. Yes, it does take love and patience but our shelter does not have the funds to care for these animals for that long unfortunately. We just barely got our shelter back up and running after about a year of not having any animal control services.
Question- is your shelter a pitbull rescue? I am wondering why so many. Our shelter can only hold 50 dogs-( the one closest to me that is of the 3 shelters). They were getting alot of pitbul and pitbull mixes as well- they started to do some research to find the " supply source". The found this lady that was massively breeding whatever, in awful conditions and shut her down. I am afraid several had to be distroyed from them living in those conditions for so many years- but several were placed.
Maybe your shelter could do some research to find out the supply to have so many- unless this is a breed shelter- then never mind my question..
