Sahara - 2yr female pit bull terrier (purebred)

Sahara is an approx 2yr old female pit bull. Sahara came to us from a very bad situation where she was forcefully bred. She lived her entire life in a cage, and as soon as her pups were weaned they were immediately taken away from her and put into cages themselves. Sahara is the sweetest dog you've ever met - she adores people and kids of all ages. She is fine with cats and other dogs. Sahara is the most beautiful pittie you've ever seen - she is very small, maybe 40lbs - and is a blue/cream brindle. Anyone that meets her falls in love - she would jump in your pocket if she could fit. She loves to snuggle and give kisses, the shelter workers who took care of Sahara before she came to us fell absolutely in love with her (which is how she ended up with us, they wanted so much to place her into foster care - she touched everyone's heart at the shelter). This little girl has lived her entire life in a cage, and we are slowly introducing her to what the good life actually is - she had a bath, she got to sleep on an actual dog bed, get treats and kisses, and play in a back yard with her doggie foster brother!! Sahara has yet to have an accident in her foster home - this little girl potty trained herself :) Sahara's adoption fee is $150 - please email us for more information on Lucy...

Who We Are

Big Dogs Animal Rescue was officially founded in 2002 as an all-breed animal rescue. Our volunteers have been involved in rescuing unwanted and neglected animals for over 15 years. They have worked with other rescue organizations, and local animal shelters. Big Dogs ALWAYS spays/neuters any animal available for adoption if that animal can be altered. If the animal cannot be altered due to a health condition or such, we will require an additional deposit in the amount of the adoption fee which will be refunded when proof of altering is shown to us. All animals are Up-to-Date on vaccines and fully vetted before placement. We will NOT declaw cats. The only time a declawed cat will be available for adoption through Big Dogs is if the cat is surrendered to us already declawed. There are many alternatives to declawing, please e-mail us if you would like some help with scratching. Most of the time a well-made scratching post is all you need. Posts with carpet on the bottom, and sisal rope in the middle are normally kitty's favorite, and cost under $20. We can also give you advice on making your own post, if you e-mail us.

Adopting a friend

Home visits are required for all larger animals available for adoption (cats & dogs). All applicants must fill out an adoption application, and references will be checked. Animals are housed in approved foster homes, and the smaller animals will be hand-delivered to their new homes.

Come Visit Us!

We do not have a "shelter" where animals are housed. All Big Dogs adoptable animals are housed in private foster homes, and are available for meeting once an application and home visit is approved.
