I believe the story. I think my dogs would do the same. Dogs (a lot of times) understand when there is a problem and alert their person. One of my dogs told me there was a rattlesnake in the bathroom...he barked for 10 minutes and I finally went in to see what was going on....and there it was.
The dog in the pic is very sweet looking.
“One of my dogs told me there was a rattlesnake in the bathroom...”
I gotta’ know, how did that end?
