ABOUT THE CHARITIES
The $100 session fee from each of my Tails of the World Mini Sessions will be donated to the Montana Pittie Project.
Montana Pittie Project (MPP) rescues bully breeds from death row, cares for them and finds them homes, and engages the hearts and minds of our community to bring about an end to the needless killing of abandoned and abused bully breeds.
MPP is a foster-based rescue with no specific location as they rely on fosters across Montana to help them save bully breeds from euthanasia. Fosters provide a safe, loving, stress free home for the dogs to decompress so MPP can better assess how they may act out of the shelter and in a home setting. MPP foster homes are crucial in the process of saving dogs lives, teaching them to trust and live again, and finding them their forever home.
For more information, to see adoptable dogs, or to find out how to become a foster, please visit the Montana Pittie Project website.
