Pit Bull Thanks Bus Driver Every Single Day For Bringing Home Her Human

Lucy is a super social dog and loves every single person she meets. She especially loves everyone in her family, although for her and her brother, it took them a little while to find their rhythm together. 

“My son is 5 years old and is nonverbal,” Miranda Peterson, Lucy’s mom, told The Dodo. “He has autism spectrum disorder and was officially diagnosed a few months after we got Lucy. He did NOT like her for the first year of her life. I think it was too much of a change for him, and he didn’t like her being in his personal space.”

Lucy could sense that her brother needed a little more time to warm up to her, and she became really great about giving him his space. Eventually, though, they found an activity that helped them bond. 

“A few months ago, my husband started to take our son on a daily walk after he finished his workday,” Peterson said. “My son LOVES being outdoors so he thoroughly enjoyed it. My husband brought Lucy along as well, and then it just became an everyday thing. No matter the weather, the three of them go on a walk. The daily outing helped my son bond with Lucy, so now he loves playing fetch with her, pouring her food in her bowl every day and occasionally he’ll go and pet her.” 

Now, Lucy loves being outside with her brother every chance she gets, and at some point that started to include waiting for the bus to come every day. It was just another opportunity for Lucy to bond with her brother, and that’s how she ended up meeting the bus driver. 

“One day she ran inside the bus to follow her brother, and that’s when she officially met the bus driver,” Peterson said. “Then every day he would come down a few steps from the bus for Lucy to go greet him.”
