American Red, White, and Blue Pit bulls

That’s right!!!!

According to data from the American Temperament Test Society, Pit Bull–type dogs have passed standardized temperament tests at a reported rate of about 87%, placing them among the higher-ranking breeds out of more than 100 tested. These evaluations measure traits such as stability, confidence, and tolerance in controlled situations designed to observe how dogs respond to people, sounds, and unfamiliar environments.
Results like these are often shared to challenge common stereotypes about pit bulls, suggesting that when they are properly raised, trained, and socialized, they can be calm and people-friendly companions. Experts frequently emphasize that a dog’s behavior depends heavily on factors such as environment, training, treatment by owners, and early social experiences rather than breed alone.
While temperament testing provides useful insight, responsible ownership, consistent training, and safe handling remain key factors in shaping any dog’s behavior, regardless of breed.

🚨 Lost Dog Recovery: Please DON’T Feed the Skinny Dog 🚨

When a dog has been missing for days or weeks and you finally locate them, the instinct is to feed them.

🔸PLEASE DON’T

Long-term missing dogs are at real risk for Re-Feeding Syndrome; a life-threatening medical emergency that can happen when food is given too quickly after starvation. We see this in recovery work, and it can turn a successful containment into a crisis within hours.

What is Re-Feeding Syndrome?
During starvation, a dog’s body switches into survival mode. Critical electrolytes like phosphorus, potassium, and magnesium become dangerously depleted. When food is suddenly introduced, the body shifts back into digestion mode and those levels can crash even further.

This can cause:
▪️Heart complications
▪️Seizures
▪️Organ failure
▪️Respiratory distress
▪️Collapse
▪️Death

High-risk signs in long-term lost dogs:
🔺Obvious, severe weight loss
🔺Very visible ribs, spine, and hip bones
🔺Muscle loss in the head and hind end
🔺Sunken eyes
🔺Extreme weakness or wobbling
🔺Lethargy
🔺Acting very hungry but too weak to move much

If you spot or contain a long-term missing dog:

DO:
▪️Offer small amounts of water only
▪️Keep them calm, quiet, and warm
▪️Limit stress and movement
▪️Contact the owner, or shelter
▪️Get the dog to veterinary care as soon as possible
▪️Tell the vet the dog has likely experienced prolonged starvation

DO NOT:
▪️Give kibble
▪️Give treats
▪️Give canned food
▪️Let them gorge on food
▪️Assume feeding is helping

🔺Proper re-feeding must be done slowly, in small controlled meals, with medical monitoring over several days or longer.

We know feeding feels like the right thing to do, but in these cases, it can be the thing that harms them most.

Helping a lost dog sometimes means not feeding them until they can receive proper veterinary care.

Leaving a dog alone outside is not harmless.
It is emotional abandonment.
Their trust is broken each time no one comes.
Love should be shared, not withheld.

Everyone thinks they’re an expert. The dude is right though, the dog MAY let go of the little dog and will absolutely turn around and bite you for having ahold of its back legs 💯

🚨 URGENT CALL FOR HELP – TIME IS RUNNING OUT 🚨

Hey Pac Fam,

On November 19th, law enforcement will clear a downtown camp — and with it, 11 dogs and 1 cat will lose the only homes they know. Anyone with warrants will be taken into custody… and their pets will be left behind.

💔 Here’s the harsh truth:
If we don’t step in, these animals will end up in the shelter system — and many may never make it out alive. Shelter overcrowding is at a breaking point. This is their one chance.

One of the dogs just had newborn puppies. She and her babies need a safe, quiet place now. I don’t yet know how many will need fosters — so I’m preparing for all of them.

And there’s more…
I’ll also be pulling a sweet pittie whose mom was just taken into custody. She was labeled “aggressive” because she tried to protect her mom — but what I see is loyalty, not danger. Her mom is headed to prison, and this loyal girl doesn’t deserve to die because she loved too fiercely.

🐾 We need help — and we need it fast.
Can you foster?
Do you have a crate, supplies, or even just a few treats to share?
Can you be boots on the ground with me that morning to help save lives?

This is real. It’s raw. And it’s happening November 19th.
Let’s show up for them — because if we don’t, no one else will.

💔 Every second counts.
Message me if you can help — even the smallest act could save a life.
