There are several accounts of extremely terrible conditions that a big number of homeless animals must endure. It might be difficult to believe how cruel a human can be to other living beings at times. So it’s wonderful to be able to share some positive instances in the hopes that they may encourage others to do good.
While some individuals only display cruelty, others try to balance it out by demonstrating love and compassion for our animal companions. Without a doubt, the story of Hansel, a delightful pitbull who was given a second shot in life by a kind-hearted human, exemplifies all of this goodness.
Hansel, along with 30 other canines, was saved from a fight in Canada. Due to Ontario’s Pit Bull dog ban, this child was set to be killed.
Fortunately, because to the involvement of a guy named Rob Scheinberg, who fought for the lives of these canines and was in charge of persuading the court to reverse their verdict and offer these boys a second opportunity in life, Hansel’s and many others’ stories changed dramatically.
The canines were taken to the Dogs Playing For Life rescue shelter in Florida, which is a non-profit organization. They work to improve the quality of life for animals at shelters there.
Hansel was adopted by the Philadelphia-based Throw Away Canines Project, which trains dogs to become K-9 cops, when he was in Florida. After a year of training, the dog was hired by the Millville Fire Department, which was looking for an arson dog.
Hansel is the first dog of his breed to work as a firefighter. This young man has been specially taught to recognize combustible materials such as gasoline and fuel. He was also awarded the Law Enforcement and Detection Hero Dog 2021 award for his outstanding performance.
Other departments have expressed interest in taking rescued pit bulls as arson detection dogs, thanks to Rob’s original efforts to preserve these animals’ lives.
Hansel has not only assisted his team with firefighting, but he has also made a fantastic buddy in fireman Tyler Van Leer, his fire department mentor. This pair has developed into a formidable team, and they are the greatest in their respective fields.
