HELLO BULLY

Is a Pittsburgh-Based 501c3 Nonprofit Dedicated to Rehoming, Rehabilitating, and Repairing the Reputation of the American Pit Bull Terrier!

Hello Bully began in 2005 after the passing of our first Pit Bull, Kaneda. I had adopted Kaneda from a shelter in 1995 and immediately realized that owning a Pit Bull was different than owning any other breed. While he was easily the sweetest, most easygoing dog I’d ever met, people would see him and cross to the other side of the street. He was a wonderful dog, and after he passed away, my husband and I decided we wanted to do more for Pit Bulls.

PAWS Chicago’s No Kill model is spreading across the nation. Since featuring its state-of-the-art Adoption Center on the Oprah Winfrey Show in 2009, PAWS regularly receives requests from animal welfare groups seeking guidance. As a result, PAWS Chicago regularly opens its doors to enable shelters around the country to learn about this new model and take new methodologies back to their home states.

Santa Cruz SPCA

The first time I walked into an elementary school classroom, with my teaching partner Lupita, I was extremely nervous. Lupita, on the other hand, was totally at ease and ready to provide the kids with a really good story. When the kids first saw Lupita their expressions showed a mix of interest, excitement, and concern. They were concerned because Lupita is missing one of her legs; although, it doesn’t seem to affect her confidence. She is always ready to share with the children how losing a leg hasn’t slowed her down at all. So the concern on the children’s faces usually melts away once they see how happy and enthusiastic Lupita is. You see, Lupita is a three-legged Chihuahua who was rescued from the streets of Juarez, Mexico. She visits many classrooms with me to teach children not only about dog safety and caring for animals but also about how being “different” is perfectly okay.

ANIMAL RESCUE CORPS

Unfortunately, there is no shortage of animal suffearing in this world. If humans find a way to profit from another species, too often greed overrides compassion. Huge industries are created and money is the priority, not the animals' best interests.

Namaste Dog Rescue

Namaste, a Buddhist greeting, loosely translates, "The spirit in me honors the spirit in you." This concept is the basis in which Namaste Dog Rescue was founded.
