I think most dogs, like human children, get more EXCITED to see grandparents than their mom and dad. They are typically much more lenient with rules of behavior and more likely to provide fun and tasty treats!

[@riveramnell143]

It’s so true! My dog is a total grandma’s girl. She loves her and gets so excited when she sees luggage because she knows that means we’re going to see her. She’s coming to visit today so I’m cleaning the house and my girl is like “is someone coming over? GRANDMA?!?” 😂

[@AnimalsneedloveDP2105]

Can't agree with you more. My little dog always approaches my feet when i get home. Just like a little baby !!!!

[@ms.demeanors]

My pitbull mix's best friend is my mother in law. He absolutely adores her. I do, too, so its good:)

[@totallynight7972]

NAH MY PIT-LAB HOWLS AND WHIMPERS WHEN MY GRANDPA COMES. granted they take her on like, 8 mile walks BUT STILL. We never get that love even when we're gone for 2 weeks.

[@lindalacey8057]

😂

[@themacker894]

We adopted a 14 year old pitbull that no one wanted at the shelter, and she turned out to be an amazing dog. It was hard for us to believe how bonded she became to our family in such a short time. Lost her recently and really miss her.

[@LydiAtheistLady]

Thank you adopting a senior dog! 14? That’s incredible! ❤

[@flenzy]

Thank you all for being you! I'm sorry you lost your girl but I'll bet her time with you was the very best of her life.

[@christineml1476]

My niece's Pittie, a 135 pound lap dog, crossed the rainbow bridge in March. He was so playful and very protective of her and her two sons. He's still missed, he was the bestest boy.

[@E.G2492]

Im sorry for this huge loss, pets really take a part of their significant people's heart, RIP 💔🐾

[@mr.otterpockets3854]

🙏 ❤️

[@lesyeuxsansvisage1157]

He’s always going to watch over her, and when the time is right, he’ll pick out another friend. That the nature of the pure love that is animals.

[@niahrahxx]

No pitbull is 135 pounds! Jesus, you guys are so eneducated about pitbulls. AN AMERICAN PITBULL TERRIER has an average weight of 30 to 60 pounds.

[@RondaSmith144Empress]

🕊️❤️🙏🏽 Condolences and you're not alone💐. Lost my sweet pitty girl in Oct and it's still hard every day.

[@Mojo182100]

That woman gave her mother a completely different view of life. Wonderful gift.

[@riveramnell143]

I started setting my alarm to get up earlier than I needed to so I have a whole hour to dedicate to cuddle and play with my dog. She loves it. She gets jealous of my phone so she loves the time where the phone is down and it’s all about her. It’s become one of my favorite hours of the day ❤

[@rirkc]

Those two dogs worked so hard to win grandma's love and attention. And they WON!

[@sateIIitepilot]

Many older people are not willing to change, that Mom is a special woman.

[@Whippy99]

I was absolutely terrified of dogs until I met my husband to be. He had a little Jack Russell terrier. I had to choose between my phobia and my husband. That little dog stole my heart and cured my fear of dogs. Fast forward 44 years and I’m still married to the love of my life. We’ve had dogs the whole time! I can’t imagine life without dogs now. They are a huge blessing in our lives. Both my children have dogs too.

[@sarahpichon5798]

Amen! So beautiful.. her love and courage and that she's finally been able to beat a lifetime fear

[@lj401]

"He is such a wonderful treasure." I think that's just the best way to describe them. And Grandpa, Polo won the lottery too when he entered your wonderful family. All of you are beautiful families, pitties, parents, and grandparents here. Thank you for loving and caring for your little treasures!

[@darcychurch9749]

I had a rescued bait dog. Brandon was a big teddy bear with people he knew & loved, but a nightmare if he didn’t like you. He could be very dangerous, but he was my protector and he took the job VERY seriously! The very first time he met my bf’s 18 month old nephew he was no longer just my dog. Brandon loved that little boy like they were born to be together. It was the sweetest love I’ve ever seen!

[@bobreil7464]

Congratulations to your mother and her brave attempt at facing her fears that's incredible congratulations to both of you.

[@pamelamays4186]

It's so adorable when a dog becomes a beloved grandchild.

[@maargenbx1454]

Sure…adorable. When I go visit my mom she spends the first 15 minutes spoiling and talking to my dog before even acknowledging that I came with him 🙄 All joking aside, my dad died 2 years ago, and my dog was so great with and for my mom. He was the first one to get my mom able to smile and begin to be cheerful again. I’m so grateful to him.

[@shawnbarczak1766]

​@@maargenbx1454 SORRY...I have to piggy back on your comment. Since I can't go with the original.... I have had my pittie now since she was 12 weeks old or 3 months depending on what way you want to take it... I grew up expecting all pits to he bad....OMG has this pooch changed my mind!!! She is almost 10 now...I usually say 9.5 but we are close enough to January to call he 10...idk im starting to picture life without her when she crosses that bridge...but....will I accept another pittie ABSOLUTELY 😊😊😊!

[@lisanidog8178]

I used to be afraid of dogs when I was little until a couple dogs showed me they’re not so bad and I love dogs. Cats taught me they’re cool too and I’ve been a dog parent and I’m a cat parent. Dogs and cats are fantastic teachers. How they know what to do to make you unafraid is a mystery. When my dog passed my neighbor took me to a shelter. I needed a comfort dog for a while and I chose a Pit Bull and he started my healing. I had a Pit Bull for a couple months. She was just too physically strong for me, but while I had her she was an amazing companion and helped me with the final part of curing my grief over the loss of my dog. I think she knew that was her job. I didn’t even ask for a refund. Chevy proved her worth and I wouldn’t have made it had I not her finishing my grief counciling. I never could get another dog so bonded to mine, but at least those two Pit Bulls opened me up to accept their kindness and gentleness. I still love Pit Bulls and whenever I see the rare Pit Bull walker I have to go over say hi and ask if I can pet their dogs. I always got a yes. I did make the mistake of triggering two Pit Bulls owned by a neighbor lady so exited to see them after so long. It wasn’t fear it was being overly happy. They barked, one jumped on me and had to apologize to the owner. I should’ve held back my excitement in seeing them after so long because they were so nice to me when I first met them and they supervised my weed pulling. I guess those dogs weren’t used to someone being so happy to see them. I love Pit Bulls. But I’m used to small dogs and I’m not physically strong.

[@sineadmchugh4234]

Not the red envelopes full of dog treats!! 😂Her Mom is adorable with those puppies now!!

[@RM-gn2nj]

this video brought tears to my eyes. what a terrific story , journey, and most of all family. Mom, Dad , baby and those 2 beefcakes and OMG gramma !!!! just precious god bless you all

[@jeannetterumpf3622]

Beautiful boys! Puppy and people! Beautiful family! Thank you for your service as a fireman!

[@ThatGirl-ku5dq]

We had a Rottweiler that was a nanny dog to children. Always watching and helping. Stayed right with them when swimming in the river. 🐾😍

[@italoman9]

Bronson is such a preciously handsome little hippo, and his entire family so adorable and loving! ❤❤❤

[@chucku00]

Kudos to the mom who fought her fears because she loves her daughter.

[@johntucker5994]

Such a nice story. I was always wary of pit bulls but was told by experienced owners that they can be great dogs and the problem pitties were the fault of bad owners. Having seen so many videos showcasing loving and loyal pitties, I believe it now.

[@ilovemyfurrykids6607]

Pitbulls and Pitbull mixes are the most loving dogs ever. I hope more people will come to realize this someday ❤🐾😍 I love my rescue pittie she's the center of my world!

[@Gooner184]

Why do they kill more people than any other dog?

[@jeannetterumpf3622]

Love all the pups and families in this video!!

[@karenkennedy6331]

My son was raised with dogs , every photo of him my Sheltie is there. He loves dogs and animals now.

[@rexregalis]

I've always been wary of large dogs, especially pitties, since I was attacked as a small child. Nevertheless, my youngest brother Chris has an absolutely gorgeous pitty named Archer. He's built like a tank, is strong as an ox, and is the biggest sweetheart on the planet! Firstly, while he is a slab of muscle and power, he thinks he's a lap dog, so he'll crawl on you as if he isn't 1000 pounds of teeth and claws. Then, he has to be fully embraced within your arms like a giant baby. All of this is after he greets you as if you are THE only human being he has ever encountered, as if he's been missing you his entire life. Finally, he is the happiest, most lovable animal in the world, protective and genuine in his delight of life.

[@benmisner6457]

So glad people are beginning to realize how great these dogs are.

[@peacelovejoy8786]

Polo - just lying on the side of the road, neutered and sweet. Hmm Who would not be searching for a lost dog like this? It was fun watching your Dad play with him! Polo looked pretty at home 🐾💛

[@althepal1983]

Your mom is so kind. I’m glad she is getting over her fear. Best dogs.

[@user-julsen]

I love how in the first part of this video, the family handled it perfectly having a baby and making the dogs still feel important by spending alone time with them . All pets can become jealous of a newborn and they need to still feel loved and special. The second video was awesome how grandma learned not to be afraid and embrace these two beauties!

[@Pakalani03]

3 great stories. I enjoyed watching these loving dogs win over their special people and families.

[@pamelamays4186]

My daughter's pittie watched over her after her spinal surgery.

[@Bluesidian]

Love the Second story. If you want to be in my life MOM you have to love my Fur kids too! Love it.

[@Athena124]

We adopted a bully last year. He truly has the best temperament. Even if another dog is aggressive towards him. He just backs away and looks at mom or dad like "what is their problem?".

[@maryford650]

Bronson and Kush have a very dedicated dad. I don't know anyone who would get up early to spend time with their dog

[@bukhtiarshah9843]

Beautiful relationship ❤❤❤

[@christinewatson77]

If only all new parents were so focused on helping their dogs adjust. Such great advice and work you've done and look how it has paid off - safe and happy, bonded baby and dogs ❤❤❤

[@DogLover_365]

Agreed. People fail to realize it’s an adjustment for the dog as well when a new baby comes. Even for cats. I spent extra time with my dogs when my babies were born, included them in everything that I could, walked them with the baby etc. it’s really not hard. Some people are just lazy and unwilling to educate themselves. But this video gives me hope, there are definitely good owners/parents still out there❤️🐾

[@MikeTssr]

That Pitbull loves that baby 😅 awesome

[@bast713]

I've said that if I ever get a dog it would be a pittie. They're so sweet and loving. I like dogs, but I've mostly lived with cats, so it would also be an adjustment to have something that large trying to cuddle.

[@hazlitt1]

THE DOG, THE BEST FRIEND A MAN CAN PRAY FOR.

[@ivechang6720]

Mama hasn't an ounce of shame! Love these stories and the families they are about. Blessings✨💖✨

[@adamlannerd1408]

As a Pittie owner they definitely choose their person, unfortunately some times it's not the owner. Mine chose my mom. lol

[@elaine1413]

So cute ! Love this ❤pitbulls!!!!! Such lovely beings baby & dog ❤

[@danajetton4704]

The best dogs ever!!!!

[@SteelToes]

Until about 2 or 3 years ago I was an idiot who believed all the negative about Pittie's. The Dodo opened my eyes. They are the most loving souls one could welcome into their families.

[@lyndseybeaumont7301]

He would have sat there until his owner came back too! Im so glad she stopped to pick him up and give him a new life. His gratitude never stopped. Wonderful story

[@mes6759]

No wonder those dogs love their grandparents, 😂 they're being spoiled...

[@toddboaz6463]

What a beauty btw!

[@nancynoble1164]

Well all of that was handled very nicely!

[@janetmarshall7171]

Pitties are loving and playful!! Sure, some are afraid and don't like them, I had plenty of people tell me that!! But you have to give them a chance like you do other animals!! ❤😊

[@jerryseller1076]

Polo and his grandfather are like me, and my Snoopy used to be. My now ex-wife at the time brought him home. He was supposed to be her fur baby, and he'd constantly try to get my attention. He fought for 2 weeks to get up on the couch with me but he wasn't big enough to get up there. 2 weeks to the day she brought him home, he got up there and layed out flat, put his head on the side of my neck and fell asleep. From that moment on, he and i were inseparable. We had anxiety when i went to the Dr office or to physical therapy. Say he passed two yrs ago in March from heart disease. Now I've got custody of my grandpup.. he's turned into a grandpa's pup now. Imma have a hard time giving custody back to my son if he ever wants him back.

[@debralynnpaxton5238]

So glad that your Mom is able to be with family and the pups ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

If you have never owned a bull terrier American pitt, Staffordshire, British or English bull terrier pls dont comment. Because you will never know how gentle daft loyal tolerant and patient they are.

It's absolutely true, I have two pocket American bullies they are extremely clingy and desire much attention. They are very sweet and loving attentive dogs, but be aware that they can be very protective, especially at night when taking walks.

[@gmdhargreaves]

Just lovely❤❤❤❤❤

[@megcozadd4053]

Hi Dodo! Love the videos but please work to educate yourselves on the difference between Pit Bulls (American Pit Bull Terriers, one specific, pure-bred breed) and bully breeds (the dogs shown in this video). Every day, so many bully breeds are labeled as Pit Bulls even though they have no pit bull in them (or are a mix of multiple breeds) which becomes an issue when it skews data like bite statistics, creating the negative stigma around APBTs. It is like if you called any spaniel mix you saw a Springer Spaniel. These dogs are bully breeds, not Pit Bulls! 🐾

[@peacelovejoy8786]

Well you just educated me on the difference! I had no idea. Thank you 🐾♥️

[@Jenifer_R_]

Agree. it's one thing to debate the umbrella term "Pittie" but this was flat out the wrong breed. They might have well called the dogs Labradors.

[@tinapeds4901]

Adorable pit bulls❤🐕

[@Reklyn_69]

That's so true, well I am Ramos George born and raised in Sacramento,Ca. I am optimist, I like to have fun and I have a great sense of honor. I like a lot of things, bright sun, good weather, sea and mountains. I like to spend my free time with my friends. I love to have fun, to go to the cinema and the theatre, to visit museums and exhibitions. I like to travel and have rest outdoors as well. Personally, I am romantic, cheerful, full of love, with a lot of energy. I am an optimistic person who enjoys every day of my life. I'm driven to achieve the things that are important to me. I adore comfort and try to create it everywhere - in my soul and in the places I live...

[@bethanybergeson4192]

This makes me uneasy. The dogs seem to be sweet and well behaved, not aggressive in the least. They would probably never intentionally hurt a baby. Babies cry and makes noises, and when a dog with such a bite force gets spooked, the results can be disastrous.

[@Petr.500]

[@silvastone1691]

I had a pitbull his name was Rex and he was a treasure. Most of my close friends use to be afraid of pitbulls but since I use to host holiday parties they get to meet him and he would win them over so quickly. By the 3rd party he was roaming free the whole time chilling with everyone.

[@DogLover_365]

Which is totally normal. Doesn’t matter what breed, some dogs just don’t want dog friends. Be a responsible owner and you’ll be fine. My grandparents have a very dog aggressive standard poodle, in the 6 years they’ve had her she’s never attacked another dog and she goes lots of places with them. People are just lazy and don’t want to take the time and money for proper gear and training. So when something happens they blame the dog.
