VILLALOBOS RESCUE CENTER PETS IN THE HOOD INC
Mission:
Our multi-programmed organization makes us versatile in our teachings and education of this controversial, yet maligned breed of dog. Our inmate program: 25-to-Life.org,is home to "Pets In The Hood" in which we work exclusively with high risk youth in various capacities. Our newest program "Canine Career Corps" is a vocational program offered to inmates awaiting their last year of incarceration and also offers an outreach internship to parolees. We also work in conjunction with L.A. City Animal Services in our obedience training classes: "For Pit Bulls Only". These are offered free to the public at any of the L.A.City Animal Shelters. All of these programs have one goal in mind: to teach what it takes to be a responsible and loving dog owner and to teach compassion for mankind as well.
