Tia was born on 11 June 1960, in southern Californian, and was raised mostly by her father and step-mother, who was quite harsh towards her. She spoke of her father with love and said that he was always on her side, while her step-mother was the one who sought discipline from Tia. She fell in love with animals in her early childhood, and nurtured her love towards four-legged friends. She started with horses, but soon added dogs, stray cats and other animals into her circle.

Gang Member and Army Service

However, Tia’s life changed when she was in her early twenties as she became a part of an unnamed suit-wearing gang, and was involved in a number of dangerous situations, even fleeing from gunfights. Luckily, she managed to leave this part of life behind her, and join the US Army as a truck driver, spending the next six years in the service.

Career Beginnings

After realizing that with her past experience she could help young people, Tia joined a youth-counseling program in Los Angeles, and it was during these years that she also became aware of the stray dog problems in large cities. She visited a Los Angeles Animal Shelter and during this visit fell in love with a pit bull dog named Tatanka, who didn’t stop playing with Tia’s children. The Torres family adopted the dog and this led to the creation of the Villalobos Rescue Center. Focused on stray and abused pit bulls, her rescue center grew quickly, and she was forced to expand her business. With over 200 pit bulls, and several other animals, such as wild cats, she was forced to hire people to help her, and chose parolees and supposed gangsters who were under police surveillance.

Rise to Prominence

However, Tia was rapidly exhausting funds needed to keep her rescue shelter running; luckily, she was approached by the Animal Planet Channel which offered to showcase her daily activities in reality TV show, and so help her with funding. Tia accepted the offer and “Pit Bulls & Parolees” premiered on the 30th October 2009, and most recently finished airing its ninth season, with a tenth season scheduled for early 2019. Since the first episode, Tia has become a national star and loved by millions of fans who follow every episode of the highly acclaimed show.

She has also spread her shelter operation to other smaller locations throughout the New Orleans area, and has since become the largest pit bull animal shelter.
