Polk County Bully Project 

We are a non-profit 501c3 rescue organization with a small shelter that works to find forever homes for this misunderstood breed. Through local adoption and rescue partnerships we are giving these dogs their chance at a happily ever after. We’re dedicated to our goal of reducing euthanasia rates of these dogs in Polk County. We pulled half of the dogs pulled in the county by rescues in 2022.

Our local shelter was deemed per 2022 statistics as the #1 Kill shelter in the state of Florida. We are working closely with Animal Control to change these statistics, ultimately PCBP is  working towards a NoKill shelter in Polk County. Currently, dogs deemed Pit Bull are rescue only. 

Through education and practical care, we’re changing the stigma that surrounds pit bulls and providing care. Spay and neuter is a huge part of stemming the flow of dogs that come in from the county to the shelter.
