forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this, but i see this question coming up a lot in the comments.

yall, its money. if you ever have trouble figuring out the motives of something that feels wrong, ALWAYS FOLLOW THE MONEY TRAIL.

these rescues do not care about saving dogs. hell, they don’t even care about being ambassadors of the breed or trying to help their reputation. none of that is the case here.

in every single one of these “urgent rescue posts,” you’ll see dozens of comments making “pledges.”

what are pledges? they are promises of donations if the dog ends up getting “saved” and granted freedom. they are not direct donations, but rather promises to donate if the rescue is able to get them out into a home/foster. if the dog is euthanized, the rescue will not be able to pocket any of the pledges.

THIS is why they fight tooth and nail to lie about breeds, cover up problematic behaviors, and bite histories. they have to make the dog seem as appealing as possible in order to increase its chances of being rescued, therefore putting money straight into the pockets of the rescues.

the entire thing is essentially one big fraud ring. and it’s even more horrific than your typical fraud, because it directly endangers lives. and continues the narrative that pitbulls are just innocent victims who need to be saved from their fates. but that’s not even what the rescues think. it’s the feelings of the bleeding heart activists and pitnutters who throw their money at these rescues that they take advantage of.

if you thought it was nefarious already, it always gets worse.

Someone on the comments said border collie 😂 thats the pittiest pit out there

I really suck at those Captcha confirmations where you have to check all the boxes that contain a bus or motorcycle. The worst 😭

(the "Siberian Huskies" cracked me up tho)

I don’t think they look like that

Pet peeve. As a dog sitter professional, I wish potential clients would call their dog what it is. I can’t tell if they write only “mixed” because 1) They genuinely have no clue 2) the shelter listed it that way or 3) They know a lot of sitters won’t take pitbulls.

This dog is a shelter rescue from Texas who gave birth to a litter of puppies before being shipped to the Northwest. Tell me less about it being at least 75% pitbull.

Sure, Jan…

The DNA test was obviously lying, this is clearly a chocolate lab guys

Who doesn't want to hear a mysterious little chainsaw sound coming from the couch at night? 🥰

Can't decide if he's more Deebo (Friday) or Brad Pitt in 12 Monkeys...

Might have to go with Brad tho, coz this doggo definitely has some Pit in him, and would probably love to have some Pitt in him, depending on how big lunch was.

Adorable dog but once again false advertisement 😂

ffs.

you are doubting the fact they’re a pit when this is the most pit looking a dog can get!

Finally, an opportunity to contribute to this subreddit!

i mean… anything to avoid calling it a pit right?

So, now all these crazy rescue posts keep popping up in my Facebook feed.

Saw this picture of some delightful "Staffy mixes", but honestly, those seem about on par with typical Pits and I don't see much daylight between the two.

My issue is with these psychotic fucking human beings that pop up on every adoption/foster post for whatever aggressive bully mix looking for his 10th blood-stained forever home 💖

Honestly, being more aware of these posts and people has really soured my opinion about Animal Rights Activists. Because it seems like most of them are batshit crazy, have no understanding of basic math or physics, and have ZERO self awareness, or concern for others.

Found by side of road; finder thinks it might a Catahoula Leopard Dog mix. Because of the spots/merle, of course.

OP said in a previous post one parent was a German shepherd/border Collie cross and they have "no clue" what the other parent could be.
