Bend pit bull mix rescues blind cocker spaniel

[KevinP73]

REDMOND, Ore. — It’s a heartwarming and a tailwagging story. The Bulletin reports a pit bull mix at the Humane Society of Redmond rescued a blind cocker spaniel that had wandered off from its new owner and collapsed in a snowy ditch near the animal shelter in central Oregon.

The pit bull mix, named Nala, kept tugging on her leash during a walk Monday, and shelter volunteer Alan Borland gave her some lead. They found the 10-year-old spaniel, named Chadwick, curled up in the ditch, filthy and clinging to life with ice balls on his feet. Chadwick had been adopted by a Redmond woman who has given a home to other disabled animals, and was glad to have him back. Meanwhile, the shelter hopes somebody wants to give Nala a good home, too

Pit Bull "mix"...here's hoping she gets adopted. With this publicity, the odds are strong she will.

Great story! My pit mix is a fantastic dog. Great with kids and other dogs.

American Staffordshire Terriors are damn heavy too..........almost suffocated his owner as seen here.

Many different breeds in the "pit" line of dogs. Am Staffs are awesome great smart dogs.


......................but as I said, damn heavy................rupert is about 75 pounds.............not an ounce of fat on him..........okay, maybe a couple pounds, but he's pushing 12-13 years old so I'll let him slide on that weight/fat thing.

I'll put in a shameless plug for my wife's book "Animal Talk" from Nimbus Press

Its a compilation of stories about animals which have communicated with their owners or other animals to do good things. All stories are from Atlantic Canada.

Stories like the one above are great to hear.
Thanks

Am Staffs are indeed super sweet and extremely smart dogs, Here is Jagermeister, (named by the breeder and it stuck.) We call him Jager for short.
