When it comes to Pit Bulls, there’s a lot of misinformation crossing around with such kind of breed. People then think they can be more harmful and uneasy to take care compared to other dogs. Contrary to the belief of some, pit bulls are loving, beautiful, intelligent creatures.

According to Cesar Milan of Dog Whisperer, sadly, a lot of people have come to think of pit bulls as violent and aggressive dogs. This is reinforced on TV and in newspapers that go to town every time there’s an attack — and often the offending dog is described as a pit even when it isn’t.

Because of many people feared these dogs they don’t tend to adopt such bread and many Pit Bulls out there left unadopted in animal rescues and shelters around the world. However, one incredible organization is doing their best to change that.

According to their website, the Animal Farm Foundation “has been working nationally to secure equal treatment and opportunity for pit bull dogs since 1985.” And now, because of their amazing work, pit bulls are being given a brand-new opportunity: to become police dogs.

Through the Foundation’s efforts, Kiah (and pit bulls like her) are now being rescued from animal shelters and trained to work with law enforcement officials in upstate New York.

Kiah has been paired with Officer Justin Bruzgal of the Poughkeepsie Police Department. Together, the duo is making a difference in their community, and disproving negative stereotypes about pit bulls.
