Having a dog around a small, defenseless baby can raise concerns for some individuals, particularly regarding certain dog breeds known for being labeled as ‘aggressive’.

At the top of this list are pit bull dogs, which are frequently perceived as unpredictable and occasionally dangerous.

However, one mother from California owes her pet pit bull her life and the life of her baby.

Latana Chai, the mom, shares that her baby Masailah and her dog Sasha were born just days apart and they spend every moment together, even sharing a bed and a bath.
