Adoption Application

Please know that this application and/or any of the questions are not designed to deter you from adopting a pit bull, we just want to be certain that our bullys are placed in the homes best suited for them.  Each and every question on the application is important in our determination as to whether you and the particular dog of your choice are a good match.

 

All applications are reviewed and considered on an indivual basis.  We know every dog and every dog owner brings something different and unique to each situation.   Please note, however, that Bless the Bullys will not consider any applications for adoption to households that already have a dog of the same sex - i.e., if you currently have a male dog, we will not adopt a male dog to you.  We do not make exceptions to this rule.
