Congrats to Denver for Repealing its Breed Ban Legislation!
We are so happy and thrilled to announce that Denver citizens have finally
overturned one of the strictest breed bans in the country, and now pit bulls and
terrier types are no longer illegal within city limits.
This means you will likely see an increase in the number of pits/pit mixes we take
in as our fostering availability just greatly increased.
What it means for you: if you are looking at a pit or pit mix to adopt from us, we
will still need to confirm that you do not having housing or HOA restrictions on
the ban. Please have that information readily available when you submit your
application. Although Denver will allow these dogs, it does not mean that every
apartment complex or insurance carrier will be so generous, and we want what is
best for everyone.
Additionally, if you have experience with the breed, please include that
information in your application.
Again, congrats to Denver on this historical event!
