Shelters in Mecklenburg and Gaston Counties are at capacity — and they need us. 💔 June is National Foster a Pet Month, and there’s never been a more urgent time to step up.

Fostering saves lives. It opens space for other dogs in need and gives pups like ours the second chance they deserve. Just look at these incredible transformations. 🐾

If you’ve been thinking about fostering or adopting, now’s the time. Reach out to these local shelters and rescues today:

This week is Animal Rights Awareness Week, and at APBF, we’re speaking up for dogs who are too often misunderstood and mistreated—especially pit bulls. 💚

Animal rights means fair treatment for all species, regardless of stereotypes or appearance. That includes ending breed-specific legislation and ensuring every dog is treated with compassion, not fear.

Join us in breaking the stigma and building a future where every pit bull gets a chance to love—and be loved. 🐾
