My Nonprofit Reviews

We worked with Friends to the Forlorn Pitbull Rescue twice in the last few years. The first time we tried to adopt we had a precious, cranky, old pitbull and we tried to match her with a younger dog. FTTF was very patient and understanding as we tried to find a dog that she would put up with. Didn't happen so we went on our way.

A year ago that precious, cranky, old pitbull passed away and in the spring we decided to start looking again. Based on our previous experience with FTTF, we headed right back to them and started over. After looking at several pictures and visiting with one other dog, we met our match.

What we love about FTTF is that they take the time to learn their dogs and figure out with what kind of family each dog would be a good fit. More rescues than not couldn’t tell a potential adopter one end of their dogs from another and that scares us. We didn’t want to end up with a dog who would eat the couch or injure our cat. We also had another specific requirement: she had to love our kid who’d been waiting for years for a dog to call his own. FTTF was very sensitive to that and made sure that we only considered dogs who fit the bill. There was never any pressure and they kept on working with us every though it took some time. It’s very obvious that they are most interested in finding the best home rather than moving the dogs along. Quality over quantity. Should we ever want another dog, they are our rescue.
