Rescue Pit Bull Brings Mom Hilarious 'Gift' After Work

After a long day at work, there are few things better than going home, where you can take a deep breath and finally relax. When you're a pet parent (or a parent of any kind), it's not always so easy! But if you have a thoughtful pup like a rescue Pit Bull named Zara, you can trust you're in good paws-she's got your evening plans covered with one special "welcome home" gift!

The funny video shared by @zarathepit shows what it's like to be a tired parent coming home to a kid who's ready and willing to help out. Zara bringing Mom the TV remote says a lot about what they like to do in their free time, and honestly, same! If only I could teach my pups to do this, coming home would be more of a comedy show than a typical, boring "I'm here" situation!

I'm not surprised by the sweet rescue Pit Bull doing something like this because she has a lot of cool talents, but none are more Pit bull-coded than her being such a Velcro pup! Having a rescue under the Pit Bull umbrella myself, I can attest to how clingy these cuties can be. It's a good thing they're so precious and cute!

Here is Zara "off leash." She could go anywhere, sure, but there's nowhere she'd rather be than with Mom.

Pit Bulls Like Zara Are Incredibly Smart

I may be biased (100000%), but my rescue Pittie has shown me how incredibly intelligent dogs among this breed really are-if given the chance to show it. Not only are they emotionally intelligent and deeply in tune with our needs and moods, but their problem-solving skills and ability to learn commands and tricks fast make them some of the best fur companions you could ever have.

You can take Zara bringing the remote as an example, or I could give you 10 things my Pit Bull did today, but should you ever find yourself wandering the shelter, looking for your next bestie, give that lone Pit Bull another look (you won't be sorry)!
