What Your Donation Supports
Every gift to The Love Pit makes a direct and powerful impact. Here are just a few of the ways your donation helps transform lives and give bully breeds the second chance they deserve.

Spay & Neuter Fund
Help us fight pet overpopulation and reduce shelter intake. Your donation provides spay/neuter surgeries to ensure every dog leaves our program healthy and set up for success.

HQ Facility Fund
Some dogs need a little extra time before they’re ready for adoption. Your donation helps us care for our long-term HQ residents and supports the daily operations of our lifesaving facility.

Heartworm Fund
Heartworm disease is treatable—but expensive. Your support gives these dogs a second chance at life and ensures they’re healthy, adoptable, and thriving.

Behavioral Support Fund
We believe in setting dogs up for success. This fund provides crates, leashes, and access to behavioral training so each dog can thrive in their forever home.

Thrive Major Medical Fund
Some of the dogs who come through our doors are in critical condition—hit by cars, suffering from untreated infections, orthopedic injuries, or other severe medical issues. The Thrive Fund is our promise that we won’t turn away a dog just because they need more care than most.
When you give to Thrive, you're helping us say “yes” to the hard cases. Your donation helps cover surgeries, hospitalization, diagnostics, long-term treatments, and recovery supplies for dogs who might otherwise be euthanized or left to suffer.
Every dog deserves a chance to heal and live a pain-free life. Thrive is how we make that happen.
Your Gift Is Their Second Chance
Every dollar you give fuels a mission rooted in compassion, second chances, and the unwavering belief that all dogs—especially bully breeds—deserve love and dignity. Whether it’s a one-time gift or a recurring donation, your support helps us provide medical care, training, safe housing, and ultimately, forever homes.
Make an immediate impact today. Use the form to give directly and join a growing community of people standing up for the dogs who need it most.
