Tell Grapevine Animal Shelter to Allow Pit Bull Adoptions

Grapevine Animal Shelter is forced to adhere to city law to not allow Pit Bulls and Pit Bull mixes to be adopted. These dogs have little to no exposure and are not listed on the website, so it is a death sentence. Please ask Grapevine City Council to reconsider allowing the adoptions of these kind dogs.

Why is this important?

There are wonderful, easily adoptable dogs at risk of being euthanized at Grapevine Animal Shelter because the city is not allowing the public to adopt them. They are networked by volunteers, but the shelter does not allow you to work with the dogs in any way without training for almost four months with the police department. This limits many citizens' abilities to enter the shelter's program and assist. It's important to understand this affects our tax dollars, strains rescue resources greatly, and causes the deaths of dogs who would otherwise be beloved companions.
