Adoptions

If you are interested in adopting, go to our application download section for an application. We will review it and get back with you within 24 hrs. Our adoption fees range from $100.00 to $200.00. This fee includes all vet work, vaccinations, and spay or neuter. At Eleven:Eleven we are all pit bull owners and lovers with families and full time jobs. We spend every extra dollar and minute of our time rescuing pit bulls! We invest a great deal of time, love, and energy into each dog. All of the dogs are temperment tested before being accepted into our rescue. They are then placed with a foster family. We care for them as if they are our own dogs. We work on crate, house, and leash training, basic commands, and socialization, take them to and from the vet, nurse the sick ones back to health, keep them up to date on flea and tick preventative, and heartguard. When they are ready for adoption, we screen each application, do phone interviews, check references, arrange and conduct home visits and transport.

Note To Adopters:

Lassie, Cleo, Rin Tin Tin, and Toto don't show up in Rescue. We don't get the elegantly coiffed, classically beautiful, completely trained, perfectly behaved dog. We get the leftovers. Dogs that other people have incompetently bred, inadequately socialized, ineffectively "trained" and badly treated. Most rescue dogs have had it. They've been pushed from one lousy situation to another. They've never had proper veterinary care, kind and consistent training, or sufficient company. They've lived outside, in a crate, or in a basement. They're scared, depressed, and anxious. Some are angry. Some are sick. Some have given up.
But we are Rescue and we don't give up. We never give up on a dog. We know that a dog is a living being, with a spirit and a heart and feelings. Our dogs are not commodities, things, or garbage. They are part of sacred creation and they deserve as much love and care and respect as the next Westminister Champion. So please, please don't come to Rescue in the hopes of getting a "bargain" or indeed of "getting" anything. Come to the Rescue to give, to love, to save a life- - and to mend your own spirit. For Rescue will reward you in ways you never thought possible. I can promise you this- -a Rescue dog will make you a better person.
