Pit Bull Placement

If you have a Pit Bull you need to find a home for, your best bet is to network with friends and family. Give yourself a lot of lead time. There are far too many Pit Bulls for the available resources. Many shelters will euthanize them. The Clear Creek/Gilpin County Animal Shelter cannot take Pit Bulls from outside of our community. For more help, contact Colorado Pit Bull Rescue or the Longmont Humane Society.
