Who We Are
Bless the Bullys is a safe haven and foster home for American Pit Bull Terriers and American Staffordshire Terriers in need. We are located in Cookeville, Tennessee, between Nashville and Knoxville. Working in conjunction with local rescues and animal shelters, we rescue bullys who have been abandoned, abused, neglected or that are in other unfortunate circumstances. Unless otherwise noted, the Bless the Bullys dogs are in my personal care and live in my home. They are temperment evaluated and adopted as house pets ONLY. Under no circumstances, will any Bless the Bullys dog will be adopted for purposes of being used as a guard dog or a fight dog. I am dedicated to improving the lives of these wonderful animals and to finding them loving, FOREVER homes!
Bless the Bullys is a home based rescue. There is no facility or visiting hours - all visits are by appointment only and only scheduled once an application has been submitted and approved.
I WILL NOT - under ANY circumstances - accept owner surrenders. I will, however, assist you in rehoming your pit bull or AmStaff and/or list your dog for you. If you are not willing to keep your bully until another home can be found for him or her, DO NOT CONTACT ME.

Dogs listed as "Urgent" are courtesy listings for shelter dogs in urgent need of forever homes. Please find it in your heart to give one of these wonderful dogs a second chance at a great life!!

Before you Adopt
Before adopting a pit bull or AmStaff, I would encourage you to research the breed to determine if a bully is the right dog for you. Pit bulls are a little more of everything you can expect from a dog. They are smarter, more loving, more loyal, more persistent, more stubborn and stronger than most any other breed. Unfortunately, they are also more feared, hated, restricted, mythologized and the most abused breed of dog.
The typical pit bull is a unique and wonderful animal. They offer incredible companionship, are amazingly athletic and have a terrific sense of humor. There is truly no other breed like them, but they are not the dog for everyone!
