CALIFORNIA
'Hero pup' pit bull tries to save baby from house fire by carrying her by the diaper
BY MATTHEW MARTINEZ

A mother in Stockton, California, says her 8-month-old pit bull is a "hero pup" for saving her and her baby's lives last week when a fire broke out in another unit of her fourplex.

Sasha the puppy and 7-month-old Masailah have a special bond, their mom, Nana Chai, told KCRA.

"She's in her bed every day," Chai told the station. "They take baths together and everything."

So it's no wonder that Sasha went straight for Masailah as soon as she felt heat coming through their door just before midnight on Sunday.

The pit bull alerted her owner that something was wrong first by barking and yelping, before any of Nana's human senses detected that anything was wrong.

It was one of the few times Nana had left Shasha outside in the backyard for longer than just a few minutes, she told KTXL. The dog was going berserk, yelping and pounding at the back door.

"I open it and she runs in and starts barking at me like crazy, and I was like, 'OK, this is weird. This is not like her,'" Nana told the station.

As she got closer to the door, she saw a glow coming from next door, her cousin's unit in the fourplex. Sasha was already on her way to get her best friend.

Nana, 30, rushed to her Masailah's room, but Sasha had beaten her there. The dog was trying to carry her out of bed and to safety — by Masailah's diaper.

"She has my baby by the diaper just dragging her off the bed — trying to get her to safety."

They got out of their home unharmed, but all of Nana's unit in the fourplex is now unlivable, according to a GoFundMe campaign started by Nana's sister Christine White. The money will go to "help not only my family but also Sasha our hero pup start a new life in a new home."


Nana told McClatchy on Saturday that Sasha is staying with her aunt until Nana finds a new home for the family, and she misses all four of her humans — Nana, Masailah and her two older sisters.

"She misses the kids and sleeping in their beds. I take the kids over there so Sasha doesn't cry all day," Nana said. "It's hard to answer the questions, 'Where are we going to live?' and 'Are we going to be homeless?' when I'm trying to figure that out as well, so right now we're leaning on each other."

It's not just thug gang members and dog fighting people. A HUGE part of the problem is all of the apologists telling everyone how much of a sweet dog they are and how misunderstood they are.

Yes, they can be super sweet. But they are a bully breed. Bully breeds require an experienced dog owner who knows what that means, not just someone who has owned a lot of dogs before.

The mantra "There is no such thing as a bad dog, only bad owners" is pretty damn misleading. There are a shitload of bad dog owners that think they are good dog owners. When they own pitbulls, it's like playing Russian Roulette. They may never have a problem. But if they do, it's going to be bloody.

And there are, in fact, some bad dogs. People need to get real about that shit. But instead, they get all pissed off at the people who have legitimate concerns about dangerous practices.

I have never said all pits are bad. I have a problem with preaching that all pits are good and the only problem is bad owners. Ironic that you mention not commenting on anything that doesn't fit a narrative.

Once again, factual statistics: 6% of the dog population, 66% of fatal dog attacks, 284 dead including many children since 2005.

They should all be wiped off the map, there is not a single breed trait that can't be found in another more well adjusted breed of dog. Anyone trying to justify anything else to themselves is borderline reeruned.

I don't even have to read it to guess..." Oh thats just lumping any dog that looks like a pit, see the american stafford....bullshit bullshit bullshit". It doesn't matter how they became a worthless, vicious, and unpredictable breed, it's simply what they are and there isn't a single valid reason for them to still exist in 2018. The very name of the breed stems from their origin of being the only dog stupid and aggressive enough to bait bulls.

You can not in any way shape or form argue the overwhelming statistics of what violent and destructive garbage they are as a whole, Petey and every other pit can eat shit and die along with any chows or akitas that happen to be strolling by.

From factual stats to an emotional vaginal discharge. Thanks for participating.

Missed a few...

My favorite pit story was the female owner out east that took her precious pibbles on a run and they tore her face and neck out killing her, Darwin snickered hard on that one.

You' and other pitbull advocates are the ones with a reputation to repair on behalf of the breed, but you aren't willing to address any of the legitimate problems that could make a measurable difference and maybe generate some good will. Instead, you insist the statistics are wrong, and people who doubt you are emotional twats. Your PR campaign is charting fantastically.

Forgive us if we all don't give a **** when they pass breed specific legislation.

She must have made the mistake of getting between them and something else they wished to viciously rip apart.

1. Who is we all?
2. What was once the rage BSL is now on the way out. The bed wetters can cry all they want for all I care.
3. I simply replied to inaccurate stats that were posted. When it was all boiled down your buddy would implement genocide on all kinds of breeds if he had it his way. Very Wayne Parcellesish. Twat is probably accurate.

I am not a big over legislation guy. I think many that love the breed do educate others but you are never going to get everyone. Owners should be held accountable for what their dogs do. Dogs killing people is not a major problem in our country IMO.

How they got labeled pit bulls isn't an accident and was certainly no mistake.

Pits were bred to be animal aggressive. They cull human aggression. People handle them in the pit when they are fighting. The most irresponsible owners are those that want to mix it with another breed that is not so stable.

I just googled it because it is not hard to find if you are actually looking for it. I did notice your favorite the CDC is in there.

https://www.pitbullinfo.org/

I didn't read through it but on the surface is looks like tons of different research and 50% of all pit bull attacks are mislabeled. Color me shocked when I used to post examples of this mislabeling all the time.

I have a pit and a lab. She's definitely the alpha and in spite of being socialized with other dogs she's very much a bully. She's a squirrel killing machine too.

Harmless towards people. I'd trust her with an infant.

Not a fan of the breed in particular. I never planned on getting one. I kinda inherited her through circumstance. I was happy with just my lab, but I like her. I'll keep her around.
