Pit Bull Rescues Unconscious Owner from Oncoming Train

Move over, Lassie. A Massachusetts pit bull named Lilly took on a freight train last week to save her owner, who collapsed unconscious onto the tracks during a late-night walk in Shirley.

The 8-year-old dog used her teeth to pull Christine Spain, 54, off the tracks as the train approached. While Spain emerged unscathed, Lilly lost a leg.

The train's engineer, who didn't want to give his name, said he spotted the woman and her dog on the tracks just after midnight on May 3, according to the Angell Animal Medical Center in Boston. He said he tried to stop the train in time but feared he'd hit them both. When he got out, he found that Spain was unharmed, but the train's wheels had sliced through Lilly's front right leg, which was bleeding heavily.


On a side story to this.. One of the coolest dog stories in my life was when we were sitting on the corner of the track in a dog park. A couple come in who have 3 dogs. One was a pitbull so I watched it closely as it approached my shih-tzu.

This damn pitbull .. "Honey" was her name. She came up to my dog and laid her head down in front of her and then laid down on her side and looked at my little dog with the sweetest eyes to tell her she was no threat.. it was cool.. really cool.

No, but a woman finding a winning lotto ticket in a waste basket and giving it back to the owner and celebrities urging us to vote by using TV commercials.

Or Lil' Weezy lifting a flipped-over mini-man, that had pinned a blind man underneath it?

Glad to see a story about a pitbull that has some shine. Majority of the stories i see are of them fighting or biting someone. As a pitbull owner i approve of this article
