Whenever we see a real dad standing up for his family we like to shine some light on the situation and that was the case recently in an Oregon community where a man saved his daughter from an unprovoked pit bull attack. The man rushed outside to pry the 90 pound pit bull off of his 7 year old daughter.

The staff sergeant with the Oregon National Guard immediately ran outside to find the 90-pound dog with its jaws latched onto his daughter’s leg as it attempted to pull her off the tire swing on which she’d been playing, according to the sheriff’s office.

Hehr said he ran to Jayda’s aid and used his hands to pry the dog’s mouth open and turn its attention to him, allowing the girl to run to safety.

“I thought my fingers were gone. It was life or death to me, because my daughter is so small and the dog was so big. If he had got my daughter off the swing, it would have been over. If I wouldn’t have been out there it would have been over,” Hehr said.
