JACKSON'S LEGACY BULLY BREED RESCUE
JACKSON'S LEGACY BULLY BREED RESCUE
My mission is to help shelters by rescuing and placing local bully breed dogs who are
loving, loyal and misunderstood, freeing up space and resources so that they can take in
and place more animals without having to resort to euthanasia - in memory of JACKSON.
In 2006, a shelter dog I loved named Jackson was euthanized at a local shelter where
I volunteered. In trying to deal with my grief and the injustice of the system toward pit bull dogs,
I established my rescue in 2007, in his memory, to try and make a tiny difference in
even one dogs life, so they did not end up with the same fate.
Ten years later, in April 2017 we received our IRSÂ 501(c)3 charitable organization status.
All our rescue pets are vaccinated, spayed or neutered, microchipped and vet checked.
Dogs are house trained, crate trained, I teach them basic obedience and to be a loving
member of the family.
​
While my heart still belongs to the BULLIES and give them priority - we have been
overwhelmed with need for other types of dogs and for cats. So we have decided, at least for now,
to not be bully exclusive - this is why you will see other types of available dogs and even cats on our page.
​We do not have a "shelter " building - all our rescue pets are cared for in loving foster homes
and an appointment must be made in advance to meet them.
I am still a very small, mostly privately funded rescue trying to make a difference - one dog at a time!
An approved application and a home visit are required for all adoptions.
All meet and greets are by appointment only.
All adoptions have a 2 week trial period.
