Nashville PITTIE Nashville PITTIE - Pitbull Initiative to Transform Image & Educate

Nashvillepittie.org PITTIE stands for “Pit Bull Initiative to Transform Image and Educate”.

Nashville PITTIE is an all volunteer advocacy and foster based rescue built on the principle of education through compassion. The goal of Nashville PITTIE is to restore the Pit bull’s positive image by: dispelling myths surrounding the breeds called “Pit bulls” through education, promoting responsible ownership, rescue and recovery, and offering free spay/neuter programs. Nashville PITTIE strives to bring to light the true character Pit Bulls and the invaluable contributions they make as family pets and service companions, as they have for generations.

Stop scrolling, zoom in to those sweet whiskers, and say hello to sweet Roxie!

Roxie is a beautiful 48 pound pittie girl who has completely stolen our hearts. She will be 6 years old on October 6th, and we think this girl deserves a pretty darn special birthday present: a foster home to help her get healthy, or maybe even a forever family to celebrate all her birthdays with. 🩷🎂🐾

Roxie has lived with two other pups and has been a wonderful little housemate. She walks nicely on a leash, has a lovely personality, and she is incredibly gentle when taking cookies. 🍪 She is just a sweet, easygoing girl who is happy to be loved.

Unfortunately, Roxie came to us with quite a few medical issues that needed immediate attention. At the vet this week, we spent $721.15 on her exam, tests, bloodwork, meds, vaccinations, and everything else she needed. She has a skin infection, a UTI, an ear infection, a heart murmur, thyroid issues, and dental problems. The good news is that she is heartworm negative, which we were very happy to hear! Once she is feeling a bit healthier, we will get her scheduled for her spay.

And ultimately, Roxie needs a foster or forever home of her own. 🏡🩷

If you have space in your home for this sweet girl, whether as her foster or her forever, we would love to hear from you. You can learn more and apply on nashvillepittie.org

🏡 Foster Needed for June Bug 🏡

June is looking for a calm, quiet foster home where she can finally exhale and feel safe. Ideally, she’d love someone who is home most of the day to help her settle into a routine.

This gentle girl has done well with adults, dogs, and cats. She’s just a little unsure around small children, so a peaceful household would be the perfect fit.

After being found as a stray and shuffled between several places, so what she needs most right now is stability, patience, and a quiet place while she waits for her forever family. ❤️

Could you be the temporary soft landing this sweet girl needs?

Grateful and Humbled doesn’t even begin to cover it 💗

Huge thanks to Jamey Johnson & Brittney Johnson’s Give It Away Foundation for choosing Nashville PITTIE as one of just 11 grant recipients so far in 2026.

This is how change happens. More second chances. More families kept together. More pitties saved, valued, and loved the way they deserve. 🐾

We’re so proud to be part of this work.
