I would have paid money to see the video if they had done that...can you imagine three dogs finding out there was a strange human inhabiting THEIR doghouse?
If it had been three large dobermans, that would be one thing, but if it had been three small, ill-tempered, viscous ankle-biting dogs who could all fit into the doghouse with the intruder...:)
She was alerted by hearing a noise but not by her dogs? Time to get new dogs.
My little guy will NEVER knowingly be put in any dangerous situation by me. Whenever we are approached by a large dog, for example, he is almost always behind me looking for ME to protect HIM.
His most important function in life is his ability to detect anything which he doesn't think belongs in his area. He has never bit anyone to my knowledge but he will snap at unwelcome advances from strangers. Once he is properly introduced to someone, he is your friend for life.
I would have been alerted the second he found out someone was jumping the fence. It is amazing what he can detect even when he is inside. In a discussion with another chihuahua owner last summer, he contended Chihuahuas were bred for the wealthy in Europe so that pickpockets could not steal their jewelry. It's my first small dog and he is an incredible first alert.
