Kiss your pit bull tonight, give him or her extra cuddles, make 'em a big old steak. You never know what your baby is going to do that stuns and amazes you. These animals are truly a gift to us humans, and one pit bull named Creature proved that not only to her owner, Cara Jones, but to one 89-year-old woman named Carmen Mitchell. Cara had taken Creature out for a walk at night when they both heard something strange coming from the woods. Cara thought it was a fox, but Creature knew it was something else.
“I kept hearing sticks breaking,” Cara said. “I thought it was a fox. She [Creature] was standing there, barking and looking back at me." Cara went back home to get a flashlight and cell phone. When she came back, she saw whom Creature had found. It was Carmen, barefoot, lying on the ground, suffering from hypothermia. Carmen had been reported missing by her family who feared the worst and organized a search party with no luck.
“We had people all over the area,” Capt. Kenneth Blair of the Piscataway Police Department told NJ.com. “We had fire units from every district; 10 police officers, state police helicopter. But it was her dog who found her.” Thanks to Creature, Carmen is now safe and sound, and her family is eternally grateful to the pit bull who saved her life.
“Pit bulls never get any recognition for doing something good,” Cara said. “Here’s a chance to say something good about a pit bull.”
