Who we are
A united rescue effort, built on love of pitties
At Perfectly Paired Pitties (P3), a woman and veteran-founded, volunteer-run 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we are driven by a singular mission: to rescue and champion Pit Bull type dogs from overcrowded shelters, giving them a second chance at a loving forever home. We are appalled by the tragic numbers of these loyal dogs euthanized unnecessarily daily and believe no pittie should be left behind.
Simultaneously, we are dedicated to supporting our nation's veterans. We are actively developing a program to train rescued Pitties to become invaluable emotional support animals for veterans struggling with PTSD, offering comfort, nightmare alerts, and pressure therapy to help reduce the devastating risk of suicide.
While our commitment to veterans is profound, our ultimate goal is to ensure every rescued pittie finds their perfect family, enriching lives and proving that these incredible dogs are deserving of love and respect. We are a united rescue effort based on love of pitties, and support and respect for our veterans.

Why we exist
These numbers are unacceptable
Pit Bull, Bully, and block-headed type dogs are among the most at-risk breeds, facing disproportionately high euthanasia rates — most often healthy and adoptable, but desperately in need of a home.
Foster a P3 pup
Saving a life is free
You provide a loving and safe home, we provide all supplies (including medical care, training support, etc.)! Below are some of our rescued pups looking for new full-time fosters. If none of them is a fit for you, or you can't commit to fostering full-time at the moment, that's ok! We always need short-term, temporary fosters, too, so apply to foster today!
