Latest Pitbulls and Parolees new Location
After ten years of being in the same building which you see each week on their TV show, they are relocating. While they endured flooding, sometimes faulty electrical, the broken water lines and the non-stop traffic of the bridge overhead, there is still so much sentiment in that this building was the only welcome mat which took them in, when they left California and needed a place to live with all of their dogs.
They do not own the building so they were not able to do the upgrades which so needed. Therefore, after much thought they decided the best thing to do for the dogs and employees was to discover some new digs. Thus, the Kingdom of Villalobos Rescue Center was found. Do not worry, it is still in New Orleans, however the building is bigger. Also, there is a separate building where they will be moving their retail shoppe, have a food truck and also a film studio location.
Their plans are to make it a Doggie Disneyland, where you as their fans and supporters are able to enter the gates and spend an entire day there. Aside from that, they are going to offer a VIP membership, where you are going to have access to their facility during "off touring" hours, be able to watch them film and go behind the scenes to work or volunteer with their dogs where the public cannot do that.
They have begun the move-in stages, construction, etc that it will take to make a fun environment for any dogs. While they do not have this location as they are renting, they have some supportive landlords who want to see them reach the dream for the dogs. They are going to keep everyone posted on the progress. Maybe they are going to have some volunteer days where you will be able to join them in building one of the most amazing dog locations in the country.
