My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Brenner is a rambunctious white and grey pit mix puppy whose energy is always unfazed! Brenner was found on the side of the road with his siblings. He was covered in mange and tested positive for Parvo. Thankfully, he and his siblings were able to receive treatment and Brenner is now thriving!

Meet Brenner. There is no such thing as too much play time. Brenner would be a great addition to any family as long as there are endless toys! He is the typical puppy just waiting for his forever home.

Brenner needs another dog that will be the alpha of the pack to help him thrive in his new home. He needs another dog to show him how to "dog". Another adorable fact about Brenner is that he is very toy motivated! He just loves to play all day.

Three words to describe Brenner? Rambunctious, playful, and winsome!

More about this rescue

Players for Pits is a 501c3, non profit rescue that connects professional athletes to the community in order to come together to take a stand against the abuse and neglect of animals. PFP serves the western suburbs of Chicago and is a foster based rescue, so the dogs in our care are in foster homes learning the basics of being a well balanced dog versus being in cages at loud boarding facilities.

The athletes involved in our rescue actively support the rescue efforts and help by spreading the word of dogs in need. It is the mission of Players for Pits to educate dog owners about proper pet care - both physical and mental - so that the dogs in our care can be happy, well balanced members of society. It is our goal to rescue dogs from high kill shelters and place them into loving homes in the suburbs. At Players for Pits we stand up for pit bulls, who's character is routinely tarnished and often misrepresented. We recognize the pit bull for what it is: a DOG. And any dog with the right care and owners can be a wonderful pet. While we are an advocate for pit bulls, we do not discriminate based on breed and will take in other breeds if they need you help. Players for Pits is also very active in the community and we co-host clinics to help struggling families maintain their pets health, we train pit bull type dogs to become therapy dogs for children with abusive backgrounds, and we try to involve the community in our goal to reduce pet abandonment.
