THE OWNER of the worlds biggest pit bull, Hulk has spoken of the guilt he feels after his top training dog, Ace, was killed by two of his other dogs. Pit bull Ace was the main demonstration dog at Marlon Grennans protection dog training company Dark Dynasty K9s (DDK9s), and famous for his acrobatic leaps through car windows and his ferocious drive. He was attacked and fatally wounded by two much larger, younger dogs on June 26, 2018, at the companys New Hampshire HQ after accidentally being let out at the same time as both of them and, crucially, a lone female. The tragic story is featured in the new season of Barcroft TVs hit online show Dog Dynasty, which has racked up more than 150 million views on YouTube and Facebook.

NEW HAMPSHIRE – UNDATED: Ace the pit bull barking in New Hampshire.
MEET Ace the elite protection dog – who can jump through second-storey windows to take down armed intruders. The three-year-old American pit bull can even recognise a variety of weapons, including handguns and knives, and could ‘easily kill a man’ if commanded to. Ace is top dog at Dark Dynasty K9s – who specialise in training executive protection dogs for the police, celebrities and billionaire clients around the world. It takes years of training for a pit bull to reach this level and Marlon has been training Ace five times a week for the last three years – as well as constant interaction – at his facility in New Hampshire, USA.

A family in Texas has a lot to be thankful for. According to CNN, 6-year-old Mason Lindeman was attacked by a dog while playing outside on Sunday, however, his concerned neighbor came to the rescue.
Click 2 Houston reported that 19-year-old Grant Brown heard screams coming from his block when he looked and saw a dog attacking the young boy. Although he did not know the child, Brown leaped into action, hoping to get the dog off of the young boy who was obviously in harm’s way.
“As soon as I noticed I just ran over there without thinking and I didn’t know how, but I knew I had to get the dog off of the boy,” Brown told Click2.
Once the young man approached the pitbull, the animal’s eyes turned on him. You can see in the video that captured the attack Brown attempting to quickly run away in the direction of his home. Before long, the dog catches up to him, throwing him to the ground.
“The dog was on top of me before I knew it and I knew I had to keep his mouth away from me,” Brown said.
According to reports, while Brown was struggling with the canine, Mason was able to run to his mom Jillian, who said she only stepped away momentarily when the aggression happened.
Shortly after, Brown manages to get up and run from the pitbull that was later surrendered to Montgomery County Animal Control.
“I just want to give the guy a hug, there’s nothing I can do but just say thank you,” Jillian Lindeman said.
