One heroic pit bull came to the rescue of an 89-year-old woman with Alzheimer's who had gone missing in New Jersey.
Carmen Mitchell, who suffers from dementia, had wandered away from her caretaker and somehow made it into the woods about a mile away. She had gotten lost in the woods and fell down in the snow. But thanks to 2-year-old pit bull, Creature, she's back home and alive!
The amazing rescue started hours prior when Cara Jones took her beloved pit bull for walk. Jones couldn't figure out why Creature kept leading her into the marshy terrain near their home. The dog began to bark and take her in the general direction of where Jones eventually found Mitchell on the ground. Mitchell was taken to a nearby hospital, where she was treated for hypothermia and released to her family.
Although pit bulls tend to get a bad rap, Jones is hoping this amazing rescue story shows just how loving the breed can be when its raised in a loving home. Please SHARE this story with everyone you know.
