I ♥ Pitbulls and Bully breed mixes, don’t you? Helen Keller did; she shared her life with her beloved Pitbull mix, Sir Thomas. Our Gang Little Rascals loved their Pittie, Petey. President Teddy Roosevelt relied on his Pete for a macho image, although Pete was in fact, a lover boy. Both World Wars utilized the brave and loyal Pitbull and General Patton had one of his own. Jessicas Biel and Alba both have beloved Pits, as does Jon Stewart and Rachel Ray. Can all of these smart people be wrong about this breed? No! And, award-winning writer and videographer, Larry Kay, delivers touching, happy Pitbull videos on his Positively Woof YouTube Channel that shows what the power of love and positive training can do.
Bullies rescued by Pet Orphans of Southern California are highlighted in one series of Larry’s video stories (one of the Pittie ones made me teary, in a good way, today). Subscribe to his channel and see the behind the scenes of how they rehabilitate an abandoned or abused dog.
Louie’s Story
When Louie arrived, he was so so sad
Louie’s videos clearly demonstrate how a dog originally thought to be aggressive in the stressful, kill shelter environment, can unfold into the loving, happy being he is in a positive, caring one. Louie was rescued by Pet Orphans from a shelter where he was scheduled to be euthanized. He had a severe case of mange. Once physically healed and receiving lots of love and positive training, you can clearly see Louie for who he really is. It make my heart feel big to see he got the second chance he so deserved.
This is a must see video for anyone who loves Pitbulls or for those who are frightened or wary of them. There are other videos about Louie and his progress on the channel, as well as videos on many other dogs, rescued by Pet Orphans, all with their own stories.
The two Lou’s.
Louie has his own Facebook page under Lucky, Lovable Louie, his own Instagram account and is currently being fostered by a woman whose dog they call Lil Lou. All their posts are hashtagged #loutimestwo, in case you want to find these adorable and wonderful pics on Facebook. I couldn’t resist pulling a couple for you. Please share them; Louie is still looking for his forever home.
