He freaking LOVES little kids.
All my Dobes did/do.
We had to put up a 6’ stockade fence in the backyard because the squeals/screams of happiness of the neighbor’s grandkids when he played with them, freaked the dogs out.
They thought the kids were being attacked and responded in kind.
Hate that fence but it keeps the dogs calmer.
Hrafn’s half-sister, Seven, is more reserved *but* she surprised us one day coming out of PetSmart, where she’d just had her birthday thing.
A scroungy guy was harassing a man and his little boy [turned out he wanted money] and Lenny took a step towards them to help but Seven gave me the leash burn from Hell as she lunged towards the jerk and dragged me along behind her as she went full speed ferocity at him.
And these were people she didn’t even know.
Shoulda seen that guy run.
Both of them are Aries...dogs of war.
:D
I wish I could have a dog. Have had many over the years. The last was a beautiful big black Lab but he got sick and we had to put him down. That broke my heart clean in two.
My wife’s asthma couldn’t handle a dog now.
People often say angels don’t exist. I point to a dog and say “Yes they do. There’s one right there.’’
