Pitbull Rescue

Got an email today from someone seeking help in saving a year old friendly female pitbull. Here's the info I received:
On Friday July 8, a female pitbull showed up at our house. She is very friendly and is about a year old. I have tried every way possible to find her family and or home with no luck. She is not micro chipped. The way she acts I think her family abandoned her. I have called and emailed many pet shelters with no luck. I would keep her myself but my chow does not like her. Please let me know if anyone wants her. I am trying to avoid having to take her to the pound.



Second email

Ok, we have ran out of options now. After making many calls to shelters with none of them even returning a call back we must take the dog we found to the pound on Thursday. Just want to remind you that she is a Pitbull that acts nothing like a pit. She is super friendly and is house trained. By the way she acts I think she would be a great family dog. Like I said before I would keep her but my chow does not like her and went after her.

If you are in the Southern California area and able to help rescue this dog, please contact Dennis immediately!

UPDATE - 7/15/11 Dennis has informed me that the dog has found a new home with a loving family! Thank you everyone! :D

Have you tried that lady Tia from that show Pitbulls and Parolees? Not sure where in CA she is but that is where she is located. Please try and contact them before taking her to the pound. Thank you for trying to find her a home before taking her to animal jail.

@WillowMoon:

Thanks for the suggestion, perhaps it would have been best delivered directly to the individual who has the dog. I haven't personally heard of the show you mentioned, so I had to look it up. However, I deliberately left the email address on there for that reason, because time is off the essence.

I looked it up and in case there are any others out there in a similar position:
Villalobos Rescue Center is a rescue, rehabilitation and placement facility for abused and abandoned Pit Bulls.
