More about the shelter
We are an all-volunteer organization dedicated to rescuing and finding great forever homes for bull breed dogs in need. Our organization formed in 1999. We do this because dogs need protectors and a voice in this world.
All interested people must submit an application, which is on our website. If the application appears to meet our qualifications we follow through with vet and personal references and background check. If those pass, we perform a home visit. If successful and up to our standards, the applicant schedules to meet the dog. If foster family and the adoptive family are happy during that meeting, the applicant signs a contract and can take the dog home. We require a donation of $400. They receive the dog's vet records and a copy of their contract.

Good with other dogs?:
Beatrice gets along with our young, submissive American Bulldog, but has been a bit bossy and protective about sharing toys or bones. She has been able to share beds, and spaces without an issue. Would probably be best as an only dog, or as the sibling to a submissive male who does not care about toys.
She is a bit obnoxious when seeing other dogs while on walks, but if she meets them, and they are calm, it's not an issue. She has been going on our pack walks and doing well.

Meet Beatrice
Beatrice is a beautiful, big mastiff type girl. She will do best in a home with people who are experienced in handling a very large, strong, powerful and a bit stubborn dog. She is BIG! She would do best with a family who works from home or will not leave her for long periods of time. She has big bark and is not afraid to use it! She is so sweet with every person she meets. She has not issues with her foster parents taking toys or food away from her.
She was a stray taken to ACCT in philly and has been adjusting to life in a foster home with a yard and foster sibling. She is BIG! She does really well going to the bathroom outside. She does not love the crate, in fact she has escaped from two. We have been slowly getting her used to a special, heavy duty crate. She would however, prefer to be left out of the crate if possible
