Abstract

Do dogs know they are being rescued? I know they know, or I wouldn't do what I do to save them. I am guarded by a 128-pound male Gotti/Ridgeline pit. I saved him from death. He is so loyal to me that I could tell him we were going to drink the Kool-Aid today, and he would drink his first so I wouldn't be afraid to chug. The day I discovered this guy had been abandoned, I knew he was probably still going to die, but I opened my car door and looked into his sad blue eyes and said, "Bighead, if you want to be my boy, I'm here."
