Many people may not know that pit bulls are actually gentle creatures. It is true they have very powerful jaws and can be bred into being vicious animals, but that is usually something that is done to them as opposed to being in their nature.
In addition, they are very physically active dogs and require a lot of stimulation. For this reason, some people give up their pit bulls when they realize they don’t want to make the required adjustments to raise one properly.
Regardless of the reasons why they are given up, the organization known as PLP (Peace, Love, and Pit Bulls) is there to collect them and treat them humanely. When the pit bulls are first collected, they must be quarantined against the spread of any illness. The quarantine ends once they receive their required vaccinations. In this video, watch a newly recovered pit bull pup, still under quarantine, attempt to join a larger pit bull on a treadmill.
The exercise device is provided for the quarantined dogs to give them the physical activity and stimulation they require. At first, the puppy eagerly watches the treadmill from the rear and side.
It quickly learns the movement won’t allow it to gain any balance. It is then it tries to mount the treadmill from the front at which time it is whisked away to the rear. That’s all it takes to get his lovable critter hooked. From then on, it became a frolic of fun and games as it replayed that fun motion and again. Eventually, it takes courage for bolder moves. Watch video and enjoy the puppy’s treadmill exploits.
