Please feel free to visit the Rainbow Bridge section of Pets and post pictures or a tribute to your beloved Zeus. That section is special to those who have recently lost their pets. We'd love to see your pictures or hear your stories.
I am so sorry for your loss and wish you peace at a very difficult time.
Yes I have Sam- I was just posting here that he would protect his family......
Sorry, I gave a quick scan of Rainbow Bridge and must have missed it - I'll go back and look again. And I'm looking forward to pictures - again, if you need help, just holler.
For those who want to post pictures, here's a how-to link:
Jasper and his entire 5lbe of mighty fury would TRY..he hates strangers in general, and im sure under the right circumstances woudl bit ust because he can, hes such a napoleon complex) but again hes 5lbs, so while his effort would be valiant, i dont think he COULD.
Ruby would run and hide...shes such a sesitive sweet soul and avoids all conflict whenever possible...
Dozer...well YES i do actually think he would protect me, and hes efinatly given me reason to belive it...
Dozer LOVES "everyone" EVERYONE needs to be his buddy, and his metho of deterance is generally jumping up an drooling on people....so even if he didnt actually protect me, hed certainly get in the way long enough for me to protect myself (and at 85lbs at just over a year old, hes got the size and exhuberance to knock someone over VERY easily if there ot braced)
given his frinedlyness i always joke if he wernt so big hed be the worst guard og ever (people see him and back off)
BUT...if he heres something at night, or someone comes to the door after the lights go on (eveings) or theres the ocasional person somethings just NOT right with...that big goofy mess of drool turns into a serious beast to be recconed with, he will stand directly infront of me, hair on end, low grow, every muscle tense. and he has lunged at a guy who showed up one evening when i was putting the goats to bed, id ust finnished up and the guy comes over a "freind for the neighbor" and tries to open the gate i have across the car port, dozer almost took his hand off. dozer was only 6 months at the time and the guy hant been back since.
i trust his judgment and for a big doofy puppy with half a brain, he seems to not only be a good judge of character, but he also seems to know WHEN to use his side for love...and when its time for war!
