How We Prevent
Our Programs:

At the heart of Cuse Pit Crew is our offering of preventative programs, aimed at reducing the amount of pit bull type dogs that are abused or end up in the shelters, while increasing adoptions and responsible pet ownership.

Keep Us Together ensures pets and their families remain united by providing vital resources such as pet food, affordable veterinary care, and behavioral support during challenging times. By reducing pet surrenders and supporting owners, the program strengthens the human-animal bond and fosters a compassionate, resilient community. Learn More >
Aside from a bark or a whine, dogs cannot speak for themselves. We must be their voice through intelligent, organized, and consistent advocacy. Cuse Pit Crew takes a three-step approach to advocacy. Learn More >
Cuse Pit Crew offers free humane education presentations in schools and community centers, teaching students empathy, compassion, and the humane treatment of animals. Their interactive lessons, tailored to grade levels, cover topics like dog safety, pit bull misconceptions, and spaying/neutering, with the goal of fostering kindness and responsibility in young people.

Education is a critical component of our mission. We accomplish this by attending local events and providing information at our booth. We invite you to join us in educating the community about the issues facing pit bulls and other misunderstood dogs. Learn More >
