You know our dogs are protective of us. If the people didn't understand why and what was going on, how could the dogs?

They were in a car in an unfamiliar place and their owners wer separaated from them. I know when my Husband cleans his gun (our Lhasa gets nervous) even though it's never been fired. Instinctively, I believe animals know.

I think this whole incident sucks and if that one poster, Cap'nCrunch thinks the cops are wanting to help people like saints with no recognition, might be he's thaat way, but, most are disgruntled for that very reason. "That's the thanks I get" thing. Sad, but true.

You bring up a good point.

Nothing at all is funny about this, but it reminds of something I read in Travels with Charley. Steinbeck said he put a red flag on his white French Poodle (charley) during deer season so no overzealous hunter (seeing white) would shoot him thinking he was a deer. Must've worked cause Charley survived all the traveling... If I ever have to travel in TN with my dog, I'm gonna seriously consider taping a big *white* flag on her tail that says "I surrender policeman, please don't shoot me".
