Patrick Stewart Meets His New Foster Pit Bull, Falls In Love Immediately

ADVERTISEMENT

Sir Patrick Stewart, a British actor best known for his roles in Star Trek and X-Men, just shared a video of him meeting his new foster pup Ginger – and it’s just pure emotion. The new pup is a pit bull, and it’s the first dog of this particular breed for Stewart and his partner. Celebrities adopting pit bulls are a powerful force against the prevailing prejudice associated with these dogs, as they are often mistakenly considered overly aggressive and not worthy of love.

The message of the video is clear – rescue dogs are so sweet, they can melt even the heart of Captain Jean-Luc Picard. So go ahead and adopt, don’t shop.

That dog is not going to be "foster" for more than ten minutes. I'd say he's got himself a dog. It never fails.

Any animal can be dangerous. All in their own way. I had a coworker who lost their finger to a parrot. Humans being the most dangerous.

It's not that they are not worthy of love, its that they come from a background of fighting and being bred for aggression and fighting. This makes them dangerous. The vast majority of this breed will not maim or kill anyone. But some will. The only question you need to answer is if you feel like taking a chance that the one that you get will not snap and attack you or someone you love. Before you get this breed, you might want to check out dogsbite.org .

Agree with both of you. You must be careful and have a good understanding of a dogs behavior. Igrew up with pits & hybrids never a problem.

it's wonderful that this dog seems to have found a loving and caring home..but people need to stfu about pitbulls having an undeserved reputation as being overly agressive..their breed is a fighting dog and their are exceptions to the rule and when they snap they snap hard...this is not a trait exclusive to pitbulls but they are more capable of killing than most dogs...i've seen what happens when they escape and it's not pretty

Looks like he's on is way to foster failure. I own a 3 legged cat we've fondly named Trixie due to it, when your heart attaches it's so hard to let them go. Bless you Patrick.

Hoping it's a "Foster Failure" Hoping it's a "Foster Failure" You did already know that a "Foster Failure" is an "Adoption Success" didn't you?
