Hero Pit Bull Up For Adoption After Saving Woman from Knife AttackCarla Welch may have been in real trouble if she hadn’t been saved by a courageous 7-year-old pit bull appropriately named Hero.
When a man was assaulting Carla with a knife on July 22nd, Hero came to the rescue with barred teeth at the ready.
Though he managed to separate the woman from the attacker, he was stabbed five times and rushed to the local Baldwin,Georgia animal hospital by police officers arriving on the scene thanks to a call about the disturbance.
After learning of the pooch’s survival from Facebook, Carla raised all the money to pay for his medical bills – all which had been discounted by the vets in honor of Hero’s bravery.
