And Sasha’s recent actions prove that pit bulls can begentle, caring, and beyond consideratewhen it comes to family members, especially little ones.

On June 3rd, Sasha unleashed an intense bark, one that her owner, Latana Chai, had never heard before. Latana instantlyknew that something was wrong, so she went to investigate.

Latana recounted the night:

I heard like, a loud bang and I was like, ‘what’s going on?’ I heard Sasha crying and she kept jumping at the door. As soon as I got to the door, she runs in and starts barking

The mother from California looked outside the door and saw the spreading inferno, prompting her to run up to grab her baby girl, Masailah. But Sasha had beat her to it!

Sasha had gently bit into the seven-month-old baby girl’s diaper and was attempting to bring her to safety. The eight-month-old pupcouldn’t bear the thought of losing her best friend!

Latana helped bring the entire family to safety. She credits Sasha for sending out warning signals with her intense barking and back-door scratching. Get a closer look at Sasha in our video!
