It is sad that the Pit Bull breed has a bad reputation. Many people think that these dogs are vicious and aggressive because of their looks and their history in dogfighting. Mass media has also helped in creating this picture.
Contrary to this belief, this breed is not naturally aggressive, and they can become great and loyal pets, even with families with small kids. One good example is a gentle and sweet pittie that goes by the name of Hades.
Adoptive father
Hades lives in Mexico with his owner, Juan Jose Flores. Juan says that some people are scared of his dog, but for those who know him, he is the sweetest dog that you could ever meet. This was further proven when a stray cat entered their lives.
Juan said that the stray cat was frequently sighted in their neighborhood. Sometimes, it would even venture inside their property. He tried to get close to the cat, but it would run away every time he got too near. So he would just leave some food outside so that it would have something to eat.
Then one day, Juan heard loud scratching and knocking on his back door. When he opened it he saw Hades being very excited. He was running around in circles and jumping on him. It was as if he wanted to show Juan something.
So when Hades started to walk away, Juan followed. What he saw surprised him. Inside Hades’ dog house is the stray cat. And with her were two kittens. The stray was ptregnant, and it needed a safe place to give birth.
Instead of being angry that somebody invaded his space, Hades looked happy and proud. He seemed to have adopted the litter. He even dragged a blanket outside his dog house and stayed there, acting as a guard. The cat seemed relieved that someone was staying by their side, protecting them.
Juan moved the cat and her babies inside the house soon after. This way, Hades and him can help care for them and keep them out of the elements. In the future, they will find new families for the kittens.
