The barren land of Canyon County, California may look unforgiving to the untrained eye, but the stark landscape of the 10 acre Villalobos Rescue Center serves as a blank canvas for both people and Pitties looking to turn their lives around.
Her passion for defending the breed branded as “bullies” born years before from her love for her first Pit Bull (Tatanka), today Tia Maria Torres, her dog-devoted daughters and a small band of former felons care for more than 200 Fidos. Their struggle to reinvent the image of both the ex-cons and the canines who find themselves at Villalobos is showcased each Friday at 10 E/P on the Animal Planet program Pit Bulls and Parolees.
The following Animal Planet clip offers a glimpse at life at Villalobos Rescue Center:
