When the Humane Society came to investigate two separate properties in North Carolina — one in Pamlico County and another in Jones County — they discovered more than 50 dogs who were a part of suspected dog fighting operations. Among the dogs that were saved was Gremlin Von Cocopuff, a pit bull terrier.
When rescuers arrived, Gremlin — also known as Gremmie — was scared of people. Despite the reputation that pit bulls get for being vicious and mean, this dog warmed up quickly when he realized he was being saved.
After the local animal shelter took care of Gremlin and got all his proper veterinary care, they put him up for adoption. Before long, this pit bull was about to find his forever home.
His new owner Meghan recalls watching his rescue video and falling in love with this sweet pittie.
"I wanted to give him a good home. I wanted to show him that there's a good life out there," she said.
In the video, Gremmie is loving life and his new Mom, Meghan in his forever home. This video proves that pit bulls can make very sweet and loyal family dogs when raised in a loving home.
Even pit bulls (and other dogs) rescued from dogfighting rings need our love and can make sweet pets. Perhaps, they need our love most.
