Treat Em Right Rescue

Dog rescue in Houston, TX

Treat ‘Em Right Rescue is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of the American Pit Bull Terrier and other “bully” breeds. We aim to place these dogs in loving forever-homes where they will be cared for as a member of the family.

Through education and advocacy initiatives, we believe that we can restore the reputation of a breed that was once America’s favorite dog.
