Pitbulls may not appear friendly and sociable, but they are among the friendliest dog breeds. In fact, a 7-month-old baby named Masailah built a remarkable attachment with the family’s pit bull, Sasha. Baby Masailah and Sasha were around the same age, therefore this is the most likely explanation for their close relationship.
The pair spends every day in bed together and even shares baths. Now that Sasha is eight months old, her bond with Masailah is even stronger, especially in light of a recent unforeseen event.
Latana Chai, the mother of baby Masailah, was at home with her other daughter one Sunday evening. She went to investigate when she heard Sasha barking in the backyard. It turned out that their neighbor’s house was on fire, and it was beginning to spread to theirs.
Chai was immediately dumbfounded upon seeing the flames and was still trying to understand what was occurring. Sasha, on the other hand, was quick to act and had already entered the house. She made her way to the back bedroom in search of the sleeping baby Masailah.
When Chai hurriedly returned to the house after getting help, she was shocked by what she saw. Sasha was hauling infant Maisalah to safety by the diaper. The baby was roughly the same size as she was, so Sasha struggled but did not give up until they were both safe.
The Chai family is quite proud to have Sasha as a pet. If not for her barks, they might have been completely unaware that their home was about to catch fire. Also, the baby Masailah could not have been saved in time.
The family is now safe, thanks to the heroic dog. Chai is overjoyed to have Sasha as a member of the family. She absolutely deserved recognition for her quick response.
