Acknowledging you’re a DC- focused entity, BUT I wanted to email a little plea to our local neighbors to consider fostering animals from Prince George’s County. Currently, the county still has a breed ban which means that any dog labeled pit bull can only be adopted or fostered by residents outside the county. Currently pittie advocacy group End PG BSL is hard at work to end the breed ban and improve shelter conditions , and we are hoping for the best for our loyal companions.
Many local rescues are working tirelessly to pull these dogs out of the Prince George’s County shelter, which only has space for 175 dogs in a county of over 1 million. But we can’t do it without more homes outside the county. If you’re interested in becoming a foster, please consider reaching out to Laila’s Rescue, AAHA, or Lucky Dogs or your favorite local rescue to see if they can and will pull dogs from the shelter.
