Anxiety and PTSD followed him home along with his injured leg. The stress can sometimes feel overwhelming for individuals in his circumstance, but recently he was happy to find someone who really understood his pain. His new best friend helps him feel more comfortable and at ease, and Flemming returns the favor. Mikko, a shy pit bull mix, took some time to warm up to his new human friend. The poor thing was rescued one day before he was scheduled to be euthanized and it was clear he’d previously lived a sad, neglected life. But after just a few days together, both the pup and man knew they’d found a true companion: Clearly, these two were meant to be part of each other’s lives. It’s amazing to watch someone’s life turn around with just a little extra love — and this time it happened twice.

That makes what they do even more amazing. These courageous men and women risk their lives to ensure that we make it out of terrible situations unscathed, and they also do their very best to save our four-legged friends. When this group of firefighters from Sandusky County, Ohio, rushed into a home that was engulfed in flames, they were greeted with cries for help. What they found were six terrified pit bulls trying to get to safety as the house began to fall down around them. Luckily, the firefighters got the three adults and three puppies out of there before anything happened to them. A few days later, the grateful pups had a chance to express their gratitude.

This hilarious and touching video shows just how loving and comfy Pit Bulls can be in a nurturing and caring environment. A man tells his Pit Bull named Doogie that he is going to play a song for the dog. The dog drapes his paws around the man’s shoulders and rests his head by the man’s head as the guy tunes up his guitar. The dog looks to be at least two years old and is big enough to climb on the couch the man is sitting on and gets his head level with the man’s head. The song is pretty funny in itself but the dog’s reactions to the words are just hilarious. This video should rank right up there with one of the top animal videos made. You get real emotion, a sense of how close people can be to their animals both physically and emotionally, and you get to see a dog that loves a homemade tune. Anyone that has been convinced that Pit Bulls are viscous and uncontrollable animals needs to see this funny little video. An animal is just as...

Anyone that has been convinced that Pit Bulls are viscous and uncontrollable animals needs to see this funny little video. An animal is just as “good” as it is treated and trained. Doogie is proof that Pit Bulls are safe for humans.

I think he’s got a pretty good chance. https://youtu.be/j556seWEbk8 This cutie is either incredibly well trained, or there’s some serious magic happening here. Either way, the Avengers might want to think about giving him a call and watch as he helps their next big battle really break the box office.

The dog you’re about to meet is a perfect example of just how wrong this narrow minded idea is. Mercedes is an American Pitbull with a big heart and a budding curiosity about her newest housemate, a small duck! When her owner finally agrees to let the pair meet, an unlikely friendship is born. Sweet Mercedes is so gentle and loving toward this tiny creature. She softly approaches with her nose, genuinely trying to get to know this little duckling! So stinkin’ cute. Anyone who assumes Pitbulls are ‘dangerous’ needs to watch this. It just might change your mind and remind you that all animals have the capacity to be affectionate and kind…to one another, and to us. No wonder this unexpected friendship went viral – they are just too adorable! What did you think of the video? Did it change your mind about Pitbulls as a breed?
