Rescue pittie helps her brother start talking ❤️️
Johnny was introduced to Xena when he was just 8 years old. She was so gentle and intuitive with him, forming a very special bond.
We spoke to his mom about how their friendship helped Johnny open up, talk more, and socialize.

Dogs are gifts and all of them should be treated as such.
❤❤❤❤😭😭😭😭
100% 💙
Yes they are. My son has autism... Best,most productive therapy that worked better than anything?...pets!!!
Pets just make the world go round!
Be kind to yourself, your pets and each other! 🐾❤
Sometimes they rescue us.
,, ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pit Bulls are the MOST loving dogs, with the biggest hearts! It takes humans to make them mean, or, aggressive.
Right! Pit bulls are the most loving and caring dogs. I had one myself.
We agree!!!❤❤❤
Absolutely!
That is soo true, you’ll find loving dogs then there’s the pit bulls, just born to love, and that’s what they can be best at
Exactly.
Pitties were originally used as “nanny” dogs. Plus, she can tell he is special. Thank you for loving her. ❤
Pete the Pup from the Little Rascals was a pittie.
Wow! I didn't know that part. That's pretty cool.
They're the ultimate nanny dogs❤❤❤
No, they were not. Please, stop spreading this nonsense. Pitbulls are fighting dogs, that were literally created for violence, hence there are so many attacks from them.
I think you're confused with Staffordshire bull terriers.
As a father with a child who has autism and Down Syndrome, our half ACD, part pit, part Great Pyrenees has really helped him a lot.
Sounds like such a unique and sweet mix! I’d love to see a picture if you feel like sharing 🥹
We have an ACD/pit mix we rescued, and she is an angel. So intelligent, intuitive, and affectionate. ❤

Xena's furry therapy is the best!
In 1972 my parents rescued a huge, neglected German Shepherd. One day, she took him to the park and there was a teacher with a group of children on a class trip.
Suddenly a boy from the group walked over and nonchalantly pets our German Shepherd, Max. The teacher was shocked and said that autistic boy had never reacted to anyone or anything until that moment.
It was the magic of Max who inspired this autistic boy's breakthrough.
That must have been amazing to witness!
I mean calling it a breakthrough is a bit rich.
@@shanecasey8365 You sound like a "Shane". Imagine going through your entire life with that attitude and that name. Wow.
@@franksmith7247 EXACTLY!
That’s a special dog! So precious!! They are connected to those kiddos that need them!! ❤️❤️❤️
A dog's value is immeasurable. For autism, PTSD, the blind, the deaf, those with seizures, those with mobility issues...the list is endless. The dog's do their jobs willingly and with enthusiasm. They love almost unconditionally.
the defintion of sentient: able to perceive-understand or feel things
🎉Yes !!!

Pets just make the world go round!
Today my son is in his 30s, successful lawyer with a son of his own. Not sure we would have gotten here without pets in his life.
Same for me and my PTSD... that's a whole different story for another day.
Be kind to yourself, your pets and each other! 🐾❤
I know, given my Type 1 diabetic mother who, is now “helping” St Peter at the Pearly Gates since 2019. My Dad got himself a hunting buddy, Tank, Yeah Tank should have been renamed Mommy’s Shadow because he refused to leave her side and let Everyone know the moment her blood sugar started to drop.
Animals can often be more interested in and ACCEPTING of us than other people are. Xena has no ulterior motives behind her behavior, just pure love for Jonny.
“A miracle wrapped up in fur” that’s perfect.
Really happy to see that this dog landed with a family that could not be any more appreciative of her. 😃
Every child should grow up with a dog. It's one of the best things ever. The only downside is when they have to leave..
Oh man I totally agree. I'll never forget when I was around 10 my mom's college professor gave us a perfectly trained 3 year old boxer bc the guy's wife didn't like the poor dog. He was the light of my life.
Humans will never heal without the love of an animal.
This young boy and pittie is proof of that
As an autistic person, I can confirm that pets, especially dogs, help tremendously
This pittie really helped this autistic boy. As an autistic adult myself: I'm happy to see that she is able to help him. Thank you Xena.
Pitties are some of the most loyal dogs you'll ever come across. It makes them happy to please their owners. On top of that, that dog would give her life to protect your son. God forbid that is ever necessary. People who haven't owned a pittie should not judge them. Best dogs ever. A holes make them mean. They are born, seeet loving, and happy. Love your story.
Thank you for taking a chance.❤❤❤
Hi 👋! Your comment are always worth reading..I pray to God to give you a lot of beautiful days and you know God loves us so much!.....So where are you originally from? I am David originally from Spain but currently living in Texas now..........
Amen precious innocent baby thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
I’ve followed this family with all they’ve done for Xena and all she’s done for Johnny. Such a beautiful story. ❤❤❤
Is Xena still.around?

Dogs are so much better than humanity deserves. I'm so grateful for them and so glad this wee man found his voice when he met his soul dog.
Yes. We don't deserve to have dogs, but I'm so happy they are here! I love my pittie so much.....not a mean bone in his body. ❤
I cannot imagine as a parent how much this little girl has changed your world. To see your child blossom so profoundly…truly a miracle! ❤❤
She was a angel sent from Heaven just for him, glad he's finally happy and talking.
Two kindred souls finding their safety in each others gravity.
Remember that no mean pitbulls are born that way. Mean people who should never have access to dogs sometimes train them to become monsters.
Glad Xena has been a blessing for your son.
Pitties are some of the most special dogs ever.
You just never know what animal is going to click, so glad you kept trying and gave Xena a great job to do that healed her as well.
Hello Suzanna I really love reading your comments, how're you doing today?
It's not the dog who's aggressive naturally. It was the owner. Change my mind.
No argument here
Our Pitty Girl is just as loving and gentle as our Golden. The problem falls completely on owners
@@M85619 Thank you

Forget about a real therapist that young man has got the best therapist he needs and he's right there always with him❤❤🐶🐶
Dogs really are a man's best friend or in this case a boy's best friend. Brought tears to my eyes! Thank you Dodo!
This brought me to tears. I mean balling tears. The power of these dogs and specifically this breed is so touching. They are amazing dogs that just want to love and be loved. So happy for your son and his best buddy. What a combo! They were meant for each other.
I hope she helps your son and they are together a long time.
This made me cry. At work. What a beautiful friendship ❤

I have a xl pittie and people see her and her size and will literally walk into traffic to get Away from her! She's automatically judged before even knowing her! She has healed me in ways medicine hasn't been able. She is my Happiness my world, she is my Freya Moon!!
Hearing that sweet boy brought tears of joy to my eyes❤
As the grandmother of an autistic precious girl....Bravo and bless you all always. Animals are amazing through God's grace.

Animals can be a source of therapy too ❤❤
Wow. Animals are just amazing.
I'm not crying. You're crying. 😭🥰
I totally am. ❤😊
Proudly doing so ❤
It's incredible what animals can do for our mental health
You go Xena and Jonny!!! Bravo!

This is so beautiful ❤❤❤
Hello Aimee how're you doing today?
What an amazing story. Johnny & Xena
Hello Palepa how're you doing today?
That dog is the best therapy for him!! So heartwarming.
Dogs deserve our unconditional love, not gods.
Pitties are the best dogs EVER! ❤
This is definitely a happy story worth telling.
That's awesome. The right friendship can unlock magic.
Him singing,"You've got a friend in me." To Xena melted my heart!So cute,he definitely has a friend in her and her in him!
We don't deserve the purity and loyalty of dogs.
Xena is beautiful. I lost my Pit Mix in November 2023 and really miss him!
Being autistic myself, I love this even more so than regular people
And this is why these dogs are amazing
No bad dogs, only bad owners
What a beautiful story ❤😊
Animals can sense things we can't, that's why they make such great therapy. They can sense when people are upset or sick. I couldn't imagine not sharing my life with an animal.
I am crying. Xena is an angel and Jonny is a very strong warrior. So nice to see them together. Much love ♥
Best Friends
Someone's "trash" is definitely this little boy's treasure! Dogs are magic!! Thank you for giving her the chance to be your little one's hero.

Our pitty mix was the most gentle, loving dog we ever had. She was great with the grandkids, other dogs, and anyone she met. She went to the Rainbow Bridge over 2 years ago and we still miss her so much.
PITTIES RULE!! Thank you for adopting.. UR A PAWSOME HOOMAN!!
We've had 2 pitties, a boxer, a Rottweiler, and 2 terriers in my lifetime. They were all rescues at early development ages. They were never aggressive, more like babies. They all lived long lives, except 1. They were all smart and easy to train. They would approach the front door silently behind me because THAT is how they were trained.
The same way that guns dont kill people, pit bulls arent evil. It takes a human being to to turn either against you. Animals are born just wanting to love and be loved. I am glad this boy found something to open his life and bring him joy. Also glad the Mom put the things she heard aside and let the little pittie into their home.
May God richly bless Jonny, Zena, you and your entire family.🙏❤️
What a comfort to know that animals are so much more intuitive than us, and seem happy to volunteer their love and friendship just where it is needed. So glad for them both.
Pit bulls👼🏻 ❤are the most special amazing loving intelligent protective companions you could ever be blessed with🐶 💯👍🏻🙌🏻😇
Pitbull is my spirit animal.
I’m so happy for Johnny and Zena ❤ animals and small children are a blessing to one another and don’t let the big dog stereotype scare you because they know who to trust and it’s the humans who make them bad 99.9% of the time especially the females they’re protecting in a good way 😊
*PB & J* dats what I’m talkin’ ‘bout!! Kind owners, kind animals.☺️

Great son, dog and friendship.
I've only met a few pitbulls (illegal here), but the ones I've met were all amazing normal dogs. From what I gather they have the same personality as my staffie had more or less. This insane love and loyalty to people, which of course can be problematic with the wrong owner. Dogs are never the problem, people are.
She understands the assignment! ❤❤

Such a lovely partnership!
That is the magic of animals. In most cases, they will bring in a different view of the world and a peace, calmness, and oneness with things greater than ourselves.
I’m autistic and have always had a special bond with dogs.
And now you completely understand the saying "There are no bad dogs, just bad owners!" There hasn't been a truer statement to explain the stigma of pit bulls! They have been used as nanny dogs for human children for many years and do an exceptional job! I'm very glad you know the truth now! ☀️💖🙏
When my mom was in the hospital for kidney failure, there was this absolutely gorgeous gentleman called Cowboy, a therapy Pit and she never missed a chance to get snuggles from him. Good Lord such a beautiful boy.
Our west highland is like this with our autistic daughter too. We didn't train her, she just knew what to do and chose her out of all three children to bond with. She can head off a meltdown in seconds with her licking and lying on her.
Xena is a beautiful girl and together, they are the perfect couple!
Isn't it great when God sends us exactly what we need. Bless them both, awesome story.
I just love love love love that this special boy, goes jogging with dad, and high fives everyone he sees! Xena is a treasure!
"They're like peanut butter and jelly." 💙💙
We don’t deserve them but Johnnys as close to deserving as humans can get. ❣️
Hello Ann beth nice picture with your lovely dog
I love your peanut butter and jelly ❤❤
'Miracle wrapped up in fur'. They all are. Changing our lives for the better every day. Humans pale in comparison.❤❤❤
My Dog Rex / Dachshund who I rescued from the Humane Society at 9 months old. He was awesome with my GodDaughter with special needs. He stayed by her side to make sure she was ok. When she pulled his ears he didn’t even care. He loved her so much. All I had to say was Corbin is coming to visit & Rex would sit at the door till she got here. Then sit next to her the entire visit. When we went to Corbin’s house I did not even need a leash, Rex would run to the car, ready to go. Dog’s are smarter then we give them credit. 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 ❤💙
"A miracle wrapped up in fur." A line worthy of Shakespeare.
I remember them from instagram years ago, such a wholesome story.

She is Johnnie's guardian angel. Bless them both. ❤❤🤗🤗🙏🙏🐾🐾🐕🐕
They are angels from Heaven and we don't deserve them. Therapy in fur, indeed.
I'm a 2 time Pitty Mama and I absolutely loved this story for so many reasons.. Thank u Dodo, family and to all the good people in the world giving animals a chance.. showing kindness to one another, and esp not judging ‼️😘
They are called Nanny dogs for a reason! Love to see this ❤
Xena has the most pretty face, I mean really pretty. She turned out to be such a blessing in disguise for your dear son.
she knows Johnny needs her 😢
beautiful beyond words.
She belongs to him as he belongs to her such a beautiful bond thank you for sharing!
That little scar or mark on her nose looks like angel arms wide open flying 🪽
