A 2-year-old pit bull named Blitz is getting the hero treatment today after he frightened a man dragging his estranged wife across a street in a possible abduction attempt.

The 33-year-old suspect had broken into the Thomas Avenue home where his wife was staying, then began dragging her across nearby South Shore Drive when Blitz bolted into action.

"I didn't think he had it in him, but I guess he did," said the dog's proud owner, also credited for helping the victim escape her attacker.

I wish more people knew how great pit bulls can be.

I've seen this with other large breed dogs - if they LOVE their owner, they will attack someone who seems to be threatening. My dad almost got bit by our german shepherd roughhousing with my mom.

I am SO GLAD to see a happy pit bull story. I've known and met some very sweet ones and it pains me to see the breed as a whole maligned.
