Have a mini dachshund. She saw some Canada geese in the yard and took off after them. There were about six goslings and 3 adults. The one male turned and stood his ground, spread his wings and reared his head back and waited for the dog. LOL! The dachshund must not have looked up and charged right into the goose’s chest and the goose bit her in the ass.
Poor dog let out a yelp and came running back just as fast as she “attacked”. Only on the return trip she had her tail planted firmly between her legs. That’s when my black lab decided to intervene and this time, the big male decided to get the flock out of there. But from then on, the dachshund would just watch the geese from the window and growl... ;-)
Maxwell, my lionhearted dachshund15, has been gone for almost two weeks. He was the last and third red for me. I have gotten up in the morning crying and gone to bed crying every day. This thread has brought back some great memories of the younger years of my doxies, and a much needed smile to my face. Max took some skin on several occasions from a few men who he felt were a threat to me. He loved to leap and go for their behinds.
