Hi, my name is Sammy! You may say I am an old dog who can’t learn a new trick, but I am determined to prove that saying is 100% wrong!

I love to run up and down the stairs! I also love to play with the hose and the sprinkler, which is really great fun for me, and if I had it my way, I would let you hold me like a baby 24/7.


Cinder is a real “Cinderella” story. Aptly named by the little boy and his mom who helped rescue her, we are certain that Cinder will soon become the princess we know she is.

Cinder was badly neglected and had bones sticking out all over when she came into rescue. She is a very sweet little girl who lives to give hugs and kisses and while she LOVES kids, she is a little too overzealous for small children.


Hub has been in a revolving door at the shelter for a while. First he came in as a stray and then the couple who adopted him decided that they no longer wanted him.

He was in pretty bad shape when he arrived to BTRVA. He was underweight by 10 lbs., had eye, ear, and skin infections, and he just felt awful!


Jazz is the sweetest dog! She’s great with children, other dogs and even cats! We don’t often see cat-friendly bull terriers  in our care, but what makes Jazz really special is that she is has as beautiful a personality.

She’s a darling girl who loves a cuddle and LOVES to play with other dogs or appreciates a fun game of tug or fetch with her human too! She’s been beautifully socialized and would make just about any Bull Terrier enthusiast a happy companion.


Oscar is a wonderful boy with a sad story that BTRVA plans to turn into a happy ending! BTRVA received a call from a very upset young lady who stumbled onto Oscar’s situation. He had been abandoned in a home with no food or water.

He was promptly transferred into our care by this good samaritan and we are nursing him back to health. Oscar has dry eye from the lack of nutrition, which will be easily treated, an ear infection, and he is about 10 lbs. underweight.


Meet Levi! He is a dog-friendly, child-friendly neutered little guy. Levi is not very big and only weighs about 40 lbs. He’s a very sweet boy who does well with other dogs of his size. He just arrived into rescue, so we’re going to get to know him a bit and then he will start reviewing forever family applications. Let us know if Levi might fit in with your family! Go to www.btrva.org/adoption-inquiry and get the ball rolling!
