A pit bull named Lilly is being hailed a hero after she pulled her unconscious owner from the path of a freight train last week.
An
engineer of a westward-bound freight train saw a dog pulling a woman
away from the tracks in the early hours of May 3 in Shirley. The
engineer tried to stop, but couldn't avoid hitting the 8-year-old dog.
The woman, identified as Christine Spain, wasn't hurt, but the train's
wheels sliced through Lilly's right foot, fractured her pelvis in
multiple locations and caused other internal injuries.

here is your vicious breed of dog.smh.free the pittys
Finally a positive article about the oh so deadly pit bull. Breeds of dogs are not aggressive, it is the way they are brought up and the affection given. I have seen plenty a aggressive chihuahua but yet they don't get a bad rap!!
What are the stats on pitbulls? I love animals, especially after reading stories like these, but hear too many stories about pit bulls attacking people. In fact, I just heard about a Wicomico teacher's wife who was attacked last week. Scary...
Yeah, well we're working on making pit bulls an instant liability over here becausr they cause so much destruction like this! Time to rethink????
9:36 yeah but when is the last time a chihuahua killed someone or tore their arm off?
Wait.....I thought these dogs were killers??? Smh
THANK YOU SO MUCH JOE!! FINALLY someone has found a GOOD article about pitbulls! thank you thank you thank you joe for getting this out there when no other media ever does!
chihuahuas mame and attack more people i.e. children then any other breed. and these dogs were most definetley bred to be killers over hundreds of years.
The owner "collapsed"? Or was drunk?
Either way, God bless Lilly and I pray she pulls through and lives a long life.
Oh those "inherently Dangerous pit bulls" When will they ever stop saving people!
Thanks for posting this. Pit bulls are loyal and faithful dogs.
My pitbull is amazingly lovable but also the best security system to have since he can sense things long before anyone approaches my property.
Yeah, Lilly!!!
It's all about the Owners when it comes to any dogs behavior.
Irresponsible owners having a dog that has the ability to cause severe harm are the ones to be penalized But----seems the Law doesn't give enough leaway there----so they go after the animal-----the real animal is the owners who turn an innocent animal into a beast!
