Pit Bull Puppy Saves Teen from Attempted Rape

Apollo the 5-month-old pit bull puppy is getting extra hugs today, after saving his owner's girlfriend from a terrifying attack.

According to the New York Post, 18-year-old Maya Fairweather was visiting her boyfriend, Carlos Guzman, at his apartment in the Red Hook neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York, on Monday night. Around 10 p.m., the teen decided to take Guzman's puppy, Apollo, for a walk.

Once she reached a nearby park, Fairweather let the pit bull off his leash so he could run around on the grass, while she watched on listening to music through her headphones.

"I felt someone pull my headphones," she told NY Post. "I thought it was my boyfriend grabbing me, so I turned around and smiled - but it wasn't my boyfriend."

Instead in was an unfamiliar man, who started attacking Fairweather, pushing her to the ground and tearing at her pants. After struggling with the attacker for a few moments, the teen was saved by her protective pup companion. Apollo raced to the scene and latched on to the attacker's leg.

The puppy bit down so hard, the stranger was forced to take his attention off Fariweather to try to shake the dog off. The girl used the moment of distraction to run across the street and escape. Eventually, Apollo released the attacker, who fled from the scene.

"He was protective," Fairweather said about the dog's heroic deed. "I think it would've been a lot worse. I wouldn't have been so lucky."

After the incident, Fariweather and Apollo, who was not harmed during the encounter, returned to Guzman's apartment. Guzman's sister took Fairweather to a local police station to report the attack. Authorities are now searching for the man.

Fairweather is understandably grateful for the role Apollo played in her escape, but is surprised the usually tame canine came to her rescue.

"He is a sweet dog. I never thought he would bite anyone. He never bit anyone before. He's usually very friendly and just jumps on everyone," she said.

Said every pitpull owner ever.


If only every target of a pitbull attack were rapists. These dogs would be heroes instead of vilified.

The owner of the pit that took some poor women's arm off this week said the same thing.

is this a guess the race thread? my bet is the rapist is....

of course.

:1orglaugh

>>> In Brooklyn <<<

You know you suck if a pitbull cockblocks you

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh :1orglaugh

What a Hero!

wonder if they can find DNA, hopefully they'll catch the attacker. Nice to hear how the pitball reacted though :thumbsup

Good stuff :thumbsup
Not sure why they release her name though since they haven't caught the scumbag. :2 cents:

I'd pette that dogge IRL

A woman alone in a park puts headphones on to listen to music.

I was go bezerk if my wife ever did that. Just sayin...

My friend, who is most definitely not a rapist, was attacked by two pit bulls who were off leash by their negligent owner and they literally ripped his ball sack open. True story :(

too much info! T M I!!!! :helpme:helpme :(:( :1orglaugh:1orglaugh

at dark night time too. I'm a guy and I never do that.

Lots of muggings in my neighborhood and everywhere I see are people walking around at night staring at their phones. Makes them very easy targets.

Fuck all the pitbull haters...use my cock as a massive toothbrush...

That a good dog instinct

Cock tease! Uncut?

and they say pit bulls are bad dogs... i personally have a pit bull and they're the most loveable dogs you can find

When I was 13 my Boxer Dog did the same when a man attacked me.

Pitbulls can be good if raised properly. The problem is the morons who keep them.

Not going to happen with a dog bite normally. They salivate so much that it ruins the blood that is released.

One awesome dog indeed

Yeah I love dogs and this one deserves lots of treats!

So.. she lets a 5 month old pitbull free to run in a park at 10 at night and then doesn't even have enough responsible ownership in her to leave her ear buds out? I'm thinking this could have easily ended up another way if she hadn't been attacked.

I have a cab driver friend that was attacked by a pit bull when he knocked on a customer's door. Bit his arm and back real bad before he shot it dead. Fuck pit bulls.

I'm totally shocked :bigears that the dog of choice of a serbian ethnic cleanser is the pit bull / dog of peace.

amazing story :)

Worst part is pit bulls are notorious bed hogs and will always find a way to sneak in and take over your bed in the middle of the night. They are also horrible dogs to take camping in the spring or fall because they get cold so easy.
