 HELP THE BUSTER FOUNDATION WIN $10,000! CAST YOUR VOTE TODAY: http://www.care2.com/animalsheltercontest/74073 WELCOME TO THE BUSTER FOUNDATION! The Buster Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to rescuing and re-homing surrendered and stray pit bulls and bully breed mixes. Through decades of cruelty, unethical breeding and irresponsible ownership, a once beloved family dog has now found itself the victim of discrimination and abuse, and a source of misdirected public fear. We believe that every dog is an individual, deserving of a loving home, proper care, and a fair shake, regardless of breed. Through our efforts, we hope to work towards a better educated and more compassionate public. The Buster Foundation is an ALL VOLUNTEER organization., and does not operate a shelter. All Buster dogs are cared for in foster homes by volunteers who commit their homes and/or free time to rescue, rehabilitation, and adoption efforts. We make every effort to have a volunteer respond to inquiries and questions within 72 hours. Please be patient and do try again to reach us if you have not received a response within this time frame. ***** PLEASE NOTE ***** ***** EFFECTIVE NOV. 1ST, OUR ADOPTION FEES HAVE CHANGED ***** These changes and our adoption policy can be found under Animals/Adoption Info Click HERE to go directly to the page ______________________________________________________________________________ PLEASE NOTE CHANGES TO OUR CALENDAR-- OUR ADOPTION SHOWCASE AT MANTIS PET SUPPLY HAS BEEN RESCHEDULED FOR SAT. 11/21 We will not be at Petsmart on the 21st ______________________________________________________________________________ 2010 BUSTER CALENDARS ARE HERE!!!
