Pit Bull On Roof So “Overjoyed” To See First-Responder That He Knocks Officer Down

First responders are dispatched out to emergency calls every day. A call may come in involving a kitten trapped in a tree but a dog on a rooftop? That’s a first!

For these hardworking, dog-loving animal officers, hearing about a Pit Bull on a roof was just too weird, but of course, they went to check it out. And there he was!

A lonely Pit Bull wagging his tail, totally confused as to how he got there was indeed stuck on a rooftop.

The responding animal officers looked all around and even as they climbed up, they still had no idea how the dog managed to climb up on the roof. It was beyond bizarre.

Once the narrating officer in the video, Andy, managed to get up to the top of the roof, the dog went bananas. He was so happy to know he wasn’t alone. Now they had to figure out how to lower him down.

With some ingenuity, the pup was lowered to the ground with a rope. It was obvious that the dog was already smitten with Andy. He thank him over and over with tail wags and kisses.

The grateful dog then races towards the female officer to thank her too. Still, they could not figure out how this stray Pit Bull ended up where he was. He also didn’t belong to the family that lived in the house.

The story, understandably, made the news. A woman who tuned it assumed that the 9-month-old pup would be adopted immediately. But she still called a few days later anyway to check.

To her delight, the adorable Pit was still waiting for a home. She drove over and adopted him immediately. She named the handsome brindle, Khan.

Khan’s mom describes him as a perfect gentleman when he wants to be. Especially during his early days, the sweet dog was on his best behavior.

It was as if he knew he had to impress his new mom or she wouldn’t keep him. That was far from the truth. Now, she says, he rules the house!

Khan gets so revved up when he’s happy that his mom calls him a wiggling noodle. He loves to pick up giant sticks and take them with him as they go for daily walks.

His mom also says that he’s exactly what she’s ever needed: a calming force when she needs comforting and a goofball when she needs cheering up. To say they’re a match made in heaven is an understatement!

10 of the Smartest Dogs in the World:

 

A friend of mine has a beautiful Dalmatian. Friendly, energetic and lovable, she was a perfect family pet… but she wasn’t the smartest pooch on the planet. See, she knew how to go through the pet door out into the garden, but she had no clue how to get back inside. It never occurred to her that the flap could swing both ways. So she would sit outside and howl until my friend would open the door.

Repeated demonstrations of the dual movement of the flap had no effect; it just did not compute. The dog breeds on this list, however, probably don’t have that problem. They’re widely considered to be among the cleverest canines in the world. Take a look and see if you agree.

1. German Shepherd

No surprise here. German Shepherds are the world’s best police dogs, military dogs, and some have even been movie stars (remember Rin Tin Tin?). Brave, loyal, smart and strong, they’re the total package.

2. Beagle

Also on the list of the best family-friendly dogs in the world, the Beagle has an incredible nose that lets them sniff out just about anything. Born detectives, they’re not the most trainable pets, but they are smart. And hey, nobody ever accused Snoopy of being dumb.

3. Golden Retriever

A popular choice for assistance dogs for their easy temperament, natural intelligence and loyalty, Golden Retrievers are natural guides and also serve as great rescue dogs. Active and fun to be around, they’re wonderful family pets.

4. Border Collie

Border Collies are considered by many to be the geniuses of the dog world. Expert herders, laser-focused (they’re known for their intense stare), and incredibly agile to boot, they’re workaholics and excellent athletes. Just don’t expect to keep one cooped up in an apartment.

5. Poodle

Did you know poodles were originally hunting dogs? They respond very well to training and are quick to learn tricks. So don’t let the fluffy looks and styled mane fool you! These dogs are among the smart canines around. Plus, they’re among the best dogs in the world for those who suffer allergies.

6. Belgian Malinois

A terrific military dog, the Malinois is a natural herder, tracker and worker. Smart, trainable and protective, these dogs require an owner who knows what he or she is doing. In addition to the military, Malinois are often recruited as guard dogs and police dogs as well.

7. Papillon

Named for their butterfly-shaped ears, papillons are small, cute and pretty smart. They’re considered the smartest of the toy dog breed, with intelligence levels comparable to the über-smart border collie. They’re alert and focused pets, and loyal and lovable: an ideal friend for he family.

8. Doberman

Sadly, Dobermans are known more for their ferocity than their smarts, but these are considered among the most intelligent dogs in the world, as well as one of the most effective guard dogs around. They’re outstanding students known to be affectionate and obedient.

9. Bloodhound

Don’t let the wrinkles and dopey expression fool you! Bloodhounds have the keenest of noses, and are often used for trailing (so much so that their evidence can be used in court against you!). These are loving but strong-willed dogs, and are often used on search and rescue missions.

10. Australian Cattle Dog

You need a smart, determined and energetic dog to control unruly cows. And that’s just what the Australian Cattle Dog, or ACD, does. They’re intelligent enough to herd these much larger creatures, and while they need their independence and wide open spaces, they’re eager workers who know how to get the job done.
