Moe and Lizzy Chock from Pit Bulls and Parolees: Are They Still Together?

TLDR: Keli’i “Moe” Chock and Lizzy Chock became two of the most recognizable faces on Pit Bulls and Parolees through their work at the Villalobos Rescue Center and their marriage into the Torres family.

Fans have been asking for years whether they are still together, still alive, and still involved with Villalobos.

Here is what we know.

---

Of all the cast members who passed through the Villalobos Rescue Center over 18 seasons of Pit Bulls and Parolees, few captured fan attention the way Moe and Lizzy Chock did.

Moe was Tia Torres’s adopted son, which made him family in the most literal sense. Lizzy came to Villalobos from Syracuse, New York, fell in love with the mission and with Moe, and eventually became a daughter-in-law to one of the most formidable women in reality television.

That combination of family drama, animal rescue, and genuine chemistry made them compelling to watch.

When the show ended after its 18th season in November 2022, fans were left with questions. Where did Moe and Lizzy go? Are they still married? Is Moe still alive?

Who Is Moe Chock?

Keli’i “Moe” Chock is the adopted son of Tia Maria Torres, the founder of Villalobos Rescue Center and the driving force behind Pit Bulls and Parolees.

Moe grew up at Villalobos, which means he was raised inside a working pit bull rescue operation, and that upbringing shaped everything about how he approaches animals and the people around them.

On the show, he appeared as part of the extended Torres family unit, working alongside his brothers, sisters, and mother at the center.

For fans who searched “is Moe Chock still alive” after his screen appearances became less frequent, the answer is yes. His reduced visibility on the show in its later seasons reflected production choices and life circumstances rather than anything more alarming.

He remained connected to the Villalobos community and to his family throughout the show’s run and after its conclusion.

Who Is Lizzy Chock?

Lizzy Chock grew up in Syracuse, New York, where she developed an early passion for dog training and animal rescue. She came to Villalobos to work at the rescue center and became an integral part of its operations, specializing in the rehabilitation of dogs that had come from abuse or neglect.

Her calm, knowledgeable presence on camera made her one of the show’s most effective ambassadors for the pit bull breed, consistently demonstrating that patience and consistency could transform even the most traumatized animals.

She became a formally certified dog trainer during the later years of the show and has since built her own business, It’s For Life Dog Training, offering training, behavioral consulting, puppy training, rescue dog adjustment, separation anxiety work, and service dog coaching.

She provides virtual sessions as well as in-person consultations, a flexibility that reflects her experience working with clients across both New Orleans and New York.

Are Moe and Lizzy Still Together?

This is the question that generates more search traffic than any other on this page, and the honest answer is that their relationship status as of 2026 is not publicly confirmed in either direction.

Neither Moe nor Lizzy has made a definitive public statement about the current state of their marriage, and social media activity from both has been limited and inconclusive.

What is confirmed: they were married during the show’s run, they appeared together on screen as a couple, and Lizzy’s continued focus on her dog training business suggests she has built an independent professional life regardless of relationship status.

Fans who have followed both of their social media accounts have noted periods of apparent distance, but nothing has been officially confirmed.

For the most current information, Lizzy’s It’s For Life Dog Training social channels and Moe’s personal accounts are the most reliable sources, as neither communicates primarily through press releases or entertainment media.

What Happened to Villalobos After the Show?

Pit Bulls and Parolees concluded after 18 seasons in November 2022. Villalobos Rescue Center itself continues to operate in New Orleans, Louisiana, where it relocated from California in 2011.

The center remains one of the largest pit bull rescue operations in the United States, continuing its dual mission of rehoming dogs and providing employment opportunities for parolees.

Tia Torres and the Torres family remain at the core of its operations. The show’s conclusion did not end the rescue work. It simply moved it off camera.
