An 8-year-old Pit Bull named Lilly risked her life to save her owner, who collapsed unconscious onto train tracks during a late-night walk. As a train approached, Lilly used the power of her teeth to pull Christine Spain off the tracks! While Spain emerged unscathed, Lilly lost a leg.
Christine's son rescued Lilly for her, thinking Lilly would make good therapy dog for his mother, who had battled alcoholism, depression and anxiety. "We saved Lilly, and Lilly saved my mom's life," he said. "My hope is that this story is going to get out and show what pit bulls are truly about. I hope by Lilly going through this, it's going to get other dogs homes."
Lilly recovered from the incident and from the surgery, and is now working on getting back her old self again. Thank God Lilly was there to save her owner. Dogs can be such heroes!
