July 2019 Adoptions!

Announcements

 

🎉🎉🎉 A HAPPIER POST for the day – let’s CELEBRATE the fact that these EIGHT BULLIES were OFFICIALLY ADOPTED during the month of July! We are thrilled that these babies will be spoiled for years to come and will never be abandoned again. We are thankful for everyone that helps us save a life by opening their home to foster or adopt a Bull Terrier in need. Please give each of their pages a like to follow their happily ever after 💗💗

As we announced yesterday, intake of new Bull Terriers into rescue is currently closed. We need time to work with the cases that we have already committed to, to hopefully replenish our depleted bank account, and to rest our bodies that are so beyond tired, physically and mentally.

Ways you can help: FOSTER a dog in need, ADOPT a new family member, VOLUNTEER for transports or home visits, SHARE posts about dogs or help wanted ads, DONATE towards medical care, BUY an adorable t-shirt!

To FOSTER or ADOPT: https://www.brbtc.org/adoption-process/

To DONATE towards medical care: PayPal to brbtcinc@gmail.com or https://www.brbtc.org/donate/ , by mail to Blue Ridge Bull Terrier Rescue, PO Box 32, Delmar, DE 19940

If you are a CURRENT FOSTER TO ADOPT PARENT, please help us by completing the adoption process for your beloved Bull Terrier. By completing the adoption process, you are opening a spot within the rescue so we can save the next dog that is knocking on our door for help. If our pending adoption numbers do not drop, we will not be able to take in any other bullies. Please help our August adoption announcement be HUGE!

As always, THANK YOU for your continued support 💕

New Intake Temporarily CLOSED

Announcements
This year has been exhausting and it is nowhere near over. The amount of Bull Terriers that are being abandoned across the country is absolutely heartbreaking. Us and other rescues are trying our best to help all of the bullies in need, but we just can’t keep up. There are more dogs being abandoned than there are available foster homes. There are more medical bills than available funds. There’s only so much time in the day. There’s only so much work that each of us within the rescue group can keep up with. And there are simply too many dogs in limbo within the rescue already. INTAKE OF NEW DOGS INTO RESCUE IS TEMPORARILY CLOSED. We need a minimum of 2-3 weeks to work with the cases that we have already committed to, to hopefully replenish our depleted bank account, and to rest our bodies that are so beyond tired, physically and mentally.
 
Ways to HELP US:
 
– Open your home to FOSTER! We are always in need of qualified fosters to help evaluate Bull Terriers for placement and get them feeling their best. We cover all medical costs during the foster period. Our application to foster can be found here: https://www.brbtc.org/adoption-process/
 
– If you are a CURRENT FOSTER TO ADOPT PARENT, please help us by completing the adoption process for your beloved Bull Terrier. By completing the adoption process, you are opening a spot within the rescue so we can save the next dog that is knocking on our door for help. If our pending adoption numbers do not drop, we will not be able to take in any other bullies.
 
– VOLUNTEER for home visits, transportation, and evaluations so we can get Bull Terriers to safety as quickly as possible.
 
– SHARE our posts. We often post pleas for help with evaluation, home visits, transportation, dogs in need of foster care, or adopt-a-bull dogs. Sharing our posts helps us fill open spots and get bullies to safety quickly.
 
– DONATE ❤️ Financial donations are always greatly appreciated! The only way that we are able to take Bull Terriers into rescue and give them medical care is with the generous contributions made by our awesome supporters. We have many options to donate, including via PayPal to brbtcinc@gmail.com or https://www.brbtc.org/donate/ , by mail to Blue Ridge Bull Terrier Rescue, PO Box 32, Delmar, DE 19940, or through Facebook via the donate button included on this post.

We want to send a HUGE THANK YOU to one of our adopters, Lynn Pinkham, and her precious Blue Ridge boy, Ivan the Terribully Handsome Boy – Adopted! Lynns Oil Pastel drawings is an AMAZING artist who has done so many gorgeous Oil Pastel Drawings for lots of Bull Terrier lovers and beyond, even donating drawings to each of our auctions to raise funds for the bullies. The past several weeks Lynn took it upon herself to hold a raffle at work for a custom piece of artwork, taking donations for Blue Ridge Bull Terrier Club Rescue. Lynn, Ivan, and all of the AWESOME employees at Bath Iron Works raised a whopping $840 for the bullies in our care! We cannot thank all of the WONDERFUL people involved enough for the LOVE and GENEROSITY that was shown to help this beautiful breed 💗💗
