good dogs

[naughtyboy]

in last 7wks we have got 2 rescue dogs from tia nr halifax.
one boy who is brindle lurcher
one girl saluki/whippet cross.

this afternoon eldest boy had mate rd who started messing with my 5yr old boy like he usually does wrestling type stuff.
boy squealed cos landed funnily next thing dogs are between my boy and this kid and wouldnt let him back near him.

convinced dogs all was ok and they let him play with my boy again but watched him like hawk.

not first time they done it when our lass out walking them with youngest two anytime anyone came near them dogs went between kids and strangers.

well chuffed with them

Sound like great dogs,my last lurcher used to protect my daughter like that.

That's a good sign, means they've integrated into your pack.

When dogs step in with that "Have you got a problem?" attitude it's great as long as it doesn't become an issue.

Dogs are great for kids too, they learn so many skills for life that many people don't realise.

My wife is a child minder and because we live in a rural area most of the kids have dog experience, the ones that don't stick out like a sore thumb.

My brother was at a petrol station years a go and as he was pulling away this bloke walked in front of him and he nearly knocked him over. Chappy went straight the passenger open and was about to start ranting until he saw my brothers collie staring at him and showing him how clean her teeth were.

Situation diffused
