When the Contreras family found Mandi the Pit Bull living in an empty lot, they knew they needed to act. So, after creating a shady shelter for her and providing some much-needed food, the family called Hope For Paws. After blocking off the area so that the pup wouldn’t fearfully bolt out of the lot, the family began cooing at the stray and tried everything to keep her calm for the rescue worker. Eventually, the Hope for Paws team was able to get close enough to safely wrap a leash around Mandi.
Despite, the difficult times Mandi has surely had trying to survive on her own and despite all of the misconceptions about her breed, she was completely calm during the situation. She not only allowed herself to be pet but by the time she was en route to the rescue center, she was a total cutie pie, resting her head sleepily on the seat and accepting plenty of ear scratches and head rubs.
Mandi is living proof that the stigmas surrounding Pit Bulls are simply not true. Pit Bulls, as with any other dog breed, can find themselves in the hands of a cruel owner who forces them to fight and develop aggressive personality traits. However, in no way, does this mean that these dogs are born that way. As Mandi shows us, all dogs really want is someone to love them and care for them.
