Dad Defends Letting His 1-Year-Old Son Nap and Cuddle With Huge Pit Bull

Even though this Pit Bull isn't the mom to 1-year-old baby Cruise, she sure acts like it, caressing the baby as the two nap together at home. Cruise's dad, Jarad, who breeds American Bully dogs, a type of Pit Bull believes that his two sons are safe around the pups and dogs. After facing some criticism on Instagram when he shared videos of his children being cozy with dogs, he says that his pups are harmless and would never be aggressive towards his little ones. #InsideEdition

It's how you train them ... my pit bull only attacks my mother-in-law.

Did anyone else notice how much smiling the dogs did around the children?

[epicman]

Pitbull named "destroyer of the universe"

[sharkysmachine]

Those dogs would destroy anyone trying to harm those babies

[MrScar]

I would feel safer letting my kid play with the dog I raised myself than with the kids raised by other people

[gpapa]

That's the safest kid in the country.

Keep up the good work folks!

[jamesjones]

Let someone try to hurt those kids, then people will see an aggressive pitbull.

[andrewho]

Its how you train the dogs. Thats how the dog will turn out.

In my whole almost 37 years, I've only met 1 aggressive pitbull. All the others were nothing but big baby's. This video is awesome.

[maurianobaruso]

the only thing in danger is anyone who tries to hurt that baby while that Pitbull is around

My pittie died a couple months ago and and she was such a nanny dog to every baby she saw. Even the calves we fostered.

Pit bulls aren’t an aggressive dog unless they’re taught to be. So tired of hearing negative things about them when they’re an amazing pet to have. So lovable and cute!

It’s the Chihuahuas you got to worry about.

My pit saved my daughter from an intruder trying to enter her window at 3 am. If he wasn't sleeping in bed with her I have no idea what may have happened. My husband was in the hospital and I was alone with my baby. My boy sounded the alarm, and when I looked at the monitor he was full on protecc mode. Intruder dude was so lucky he didn't get that window open.

If chihuahuas were bigger they'd be the ones getting hate.

[TheThedom]

That pit bull would never hurt those children, he sees his owners children as his own pups

[larrymead]

The only times I've seen mean dogs is when their owners make them that way.

[realTRAVE]

That kid is the safest kid in the world. That dog will protect that kid for life.

[fliesbyme]

That is one of the most adorable things I've ever seen. Good on you.

Dogs aren't stupid. The dog knows to protect that vulnerable baby like her own pup.
