Welcome to Mid-America Bully Breed Rescue
Welcome! MABBR was created by a group of bully breed enthusiasts to save these delightful but often misunderstood dogs. Not only does MABBR rescue and find homes for homeless bull breeds such as American Pit Bull Terriers, American Staffordshire Terriers, American Bulldogs, Bull Terriers, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Bull Mastiffs, mixed breeds, and other Mollasser-type dogs, MABBR also focuses on education, outreach, and assisting cities with drafting safer and more effective breed-neutral dangerous dog laws.

Incredi-bulls for Adoption
MABBR's mission is to rescue great bully breed ambassadors and place them for adoption. Candidate MABBR dogs are selected from animal shelters across the Midwest. After evaluation and vetting, dogs are either fostered or boarded until their forever families are found.

Finding a Dog a Home
If you are looking to surrender a dog, our space is limited as we rescue all of our dogs from crowded animal control facilities and shelters. Please try your best to keep your pet - he/she is counting on you! Rehoming your Pet

If you are an animal shelter, rescue group, or individual who found a dog in need of a new home, please visit our Find a Dog a Home page for resources, tips and advice.

We couldn't do it without you!
Our generous supporters are key in saving lives. Without you, these dogs would not have a chance. Thank you for your kindness and support.

Featured New Beginning - A Perfect Match!

Last fall a litter of four puppies came down with parvovirus. While we treated them all, unfortunately only two survived. Arturo came home from the emergency vet weighing 2.5 lbs. He was skin and bones and was in so much pain and so sick he would grind his teeth and shake day and night. Arturo's foster mom couldn't let him go after all he had been through and ended up adopting him. Arturo pulled through and is now a whopping 40 lbs. with room to grow! He's all legs (and ears), standing taller than his sister (who's a Rottweiler!). He knows basic commands and is working on his specialized military crawl trick and rolling over. Arturo is well socialized and loves to play with his family. He attends day care and loves to meet new people. He's still a puppy so he chews on shoes and plays tug with his sister. His foster mom calls him "hop along" as he leaps and bounds everywhere he goes, he also loves to wrestle with all his doggie family and friends. Thank you to all who donated to save our puppies. Arturo is a loving, entertaining, and irreplaceable member of his family and will grow to be a great breed representative

In Memory of those we couldn't save in time....
Special thank you to Lisa Carestia for her donation in memory of Cisco, Cassie and Bowie, who sadly couldn't be saved in time. They will be forever missed along with so many others...
