Dogs labeled as pit bulls tend to get a bad reputation and a lot less love than other breeds. For many human ears, the label “pit bull” wrongly suggests a vicious animal with the innate will to attack. Which is sad, because pit bulls love a belly rub, scratch behind the ears, and cuddles just as much as any other dog breed.
The prejudice against pit bulls might, in part, be founded on old studies (which have since been debunked) that claim pit bulls are more likely to bite than other dogs. They are not.
In hopes to change the narrative surrounding these animals, we’re sharing 16 incredible pit bulls who’ve put their loyal nature, smarts and sweetness to work to save the day:

Phoebe rescued a cat sealed in a cardboard box.

A pit bull with a sharp nose was this little cat’s best friend. Around Christmas of 2010, when Phoebe was on her regular morning walk in Troy, New York, she responded to mews she heard from a cardboard ditched among a pile of trash. The box was sealed with tape — there was only a small hole, through which Phoebe stuck her nose, Times Union reports. The pair found a cat trapped inside.
Once alerted to the box, Phoebe’s owner Melissa called the police. Troy animal control took the small gray cat to the veterinary hospital, where is was treated and officially named “Jack in the Box.”
