Our Golden Retriever crossed the Rainbow Bridge back in September. Given a little time to adjust, it is now time to look for a new dog. The last 2 dogs were purebred Goldens raised from puppy and living 14 and 13.5 years. We are getting older and think it might be too much for us to start with a new puppy (and maybe unfair to the puppy).
We decided to look for a rescue and are fairly open to a large dog breed. The first 4 shelters we went to we noticed that more than half of their dogs and up to 3/4 are pit bulls or pit bull mixed. I have no problem with any dog in the right home with the right training, but I fear that many of these dogs will never find their forever home.
Most of the shelters we visited were "no kill" and I fear that the pits will spend the rest of their lives in a cage.
