How could you not give that dude a steak?
To everyone bitching about Texas Roadhouse allowing that dog who was deployed twice, to eat a steak in the restaurant on Veterans Day,
here’s the part of the story most people missed.
That blue-gray pit bull isn’t “just a dog.” He’s a retired Military Working Dog, a calm, disciplined soul who served overseas alongside U.S. troops—twice.
On this night, at a small Texas steakhouse outside Fort Liberty, his handler asked for nothing special. No spotlight. No applause. Just a quiet booth and a simple meal to honor a partner who never once flinched when it mattered most.
While glasses clinked and conversations buzzed, he rested his head gently on the table, eyes steady, manners flawless. No barking. No begging. No [ch.a.os]. Just gratitude in its purest form—waiting patiently as a modest steak was placed in front of him. A well-earned bite, on Veterans Day, for a veteran who happens to have four legs and a pit bull smile.
Funny thing is, he was cleaner, quieter, and more respectful than half the humans in the room. He didn’t run around. He didn’t disrupt anyone’s night. He simply sat there, embodying everything people claim pit bulls aren’t: gentle, loyal, composed, and deeply loving.
Rescue South Paws—an organization dedicated to saving and rehoming pit bulls, especially former service and working dogs—stood proudly behind that moment. Because honoring veterans shouldn’t stop at species.
And judging pit bulls by myths instead of moments like this?
That’s the real problem.
I’d choose to sit next to this dog any day.
Because this pit bull didn’t need to prove he belonged—he already earned it. 
Those working dogs earned their place in society…let them have their steak for God’s sake they saved lives and served their country…they deserve it!!
Thank you for your service!!
