Pitbull- positive news for a change

Just wanted to post this piece re: a heroic pitbull instead of all the negativity they get


On a day when temperatures plunged to -40C, Noella Mitchell lay helpless on a handicap ramp staring into the eyes of a pitbull and thinking she was about to die.
The 42 year old woman who has Graves disease (which causes muscular weakness) was unable to get up and feared things had got worse.
Her cries for help had gone unheard, except by Cloe, her sons friends pitbull which had somehow got out of the house
"When i saw her, i thought I was dead" says Noella. But to her surprise Cloe began licking her face and trying to bring attention to her fall. "She sat beside me , howling and barking"
At one point the desperate dog tried to pull Noella inside. Finally her sons friend came home and helped Noella inside to safety.



Papers never seem to make big news of those stories do they

Good news is no news Lel.

Stories like that don't sell papers Lel, unfortunately.

well as long as WE all know theyre not savage killers

I met quite a few pitbulls years ago,they were normal family pets.Really nice animals.

Its the media and the public we need to make realise that all pitbulls arent as they are portayed

It's the old story Lel....Give a dog a bad name..

I know Moli

I also read a storey of a heroic pitbull, will try find it again...

Got it, this is a nice change to read about ... and this was quite high up in the news when it happened!!
