We offer nutrition and lifelong wellness support to every adopter.We serve the state of North Carolina, the state of South Carolina and the state of Alabama. Made up of 150 volunteers, B2TR has rehomed almost 350 bullies and counseled hundreds of families to provide support, encouragement and training consults to help keep bullies in their homes.The national economic downturn in the past few years has presented some unexpected challenges for B2TR with an unprecedented rise in bulldog surrenders both by owner families and various animal care and control organizations that turn to B2TR for assistance in appropriate placements.

We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in south eastern Pennsylvania that was founded on the idea of helping desperate animals in need. Every day, healthy, loving animals throughout the country are euthanized, simply because they cannot get to other areas where they would otherwise be adopted…we help to change that. We operate along the east coast where there is a large need for transport. Normally our rescue missions involve moving animals from the south to the northeast. Through a network of animal rescue organizations, ground transport, and volunteer pilots we help to transport animals from kill shelters to areas where they will be adopted, and given a second chance at life. Many times air transport is the safest and most efficient way to transport these animals. Usually we can help move animals from shelter to rescue within the same day.
