    LMAO @ that second pic, hahaha

    This is one of my photos of a big guy named Jake that I photographed for the rescue group, got published on the cover of The Picture Professional a few years back.

    That is a characteristic of pits that most people don't understand. I had a pit when my kids were school age. He would walk out the front door and watch them go to the bus stop and keep his eye on them until the bus came. Once they got on the bus he would come back inside. When it was time for them to come home, my wife would let him out, he would watch them get off the bus and follow them back inside. I was always asked if I was afraid of having a pit around my children, I would say nope, I would be more afraid of not having him around. Very loyal and protective dogs if you treat them right.

    To the OP, thank you to both you and your family for rescuing a dog in need of a good home. There are too many good dogs that are just sitting at a shelter waiting to chosen.

    I just put my Chihauhau down after 20 years of greatness. He was a blast and he is sorely missed.

    He wasn't the wimpy style Chihuahua. 14 pounds and liked to ride in the truck.
