HELP THE BUSTER FOUNDATION WIN $10,000!

 
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.
