I have a Lab and German Shepard I can take in the national forest and I know they would defend me with their life against a mountain lion or bear...

Rather than defend them during any attack, you will sacrifice them in order to satisfy your ego and self-righteousness.

Are you kidding me? What kind of comment is that? I would never sacrifice my beloved pets during any attack whether against man or beast!

I know from experience that a mountain lion or bear will GENERLY not attack a person when more than one dog is present.

Your comment is ridiculous.

That is one of the nuttiest things I have ever heard. You are a Kook with a capital K. You read way too much into what she was saying.

Are you nutz? That is one of the most assinine things I have ever heard.
I have two German Shepherds both of whom would both give their lives for me and my family.... I love my dogs, but if it came down to my wife+kids vs. the dogs, I'd let the dogs do their work...damn straight. And by the way, I'll take my chances with 2 German Shepherds vs. 1 wilderness beast. It may not be pretty, but my dogs win.
