Im so proud*L* I had to share...
he passed his first test a lil bit ago....
My daughter was walking him, im training her to handle him.....and, a guy crossed the street, dimly lit, and kept coming, fast, and moved more towards my daughter than me....holding some kind of clipboard and asking if id seen someone.....Kaiser(dogs name...for Kaiser Sose, yes the movie*L*)...puffed up like a pufferfish, watched him close in...and growled a warning....then when the guy kept coming, he started lunging and barking....I had to take control of Him at that time cause my daughter didnt think hed really bite him..Im gonna swat her later*L*
I cut him off and said.."son, dont you see the dog? stay back, hes a working dog, not a goddamn cocker spaniel"
He finally acted like he saw him(musta been stoned or wayy trusting) and backed off.....but....kudos to Kaiser for protecting us on his second day with us!!!!
I just had to share.....Hes so sweet he melts my heart....I NOW feel totally safe, after him displaying protective behaviour tonight.....I used to twitch at every sound, cause of some threats....
Will post piccies of us later!!!!!
*bounces to go give Him treats*
*adds*
were going to train him as a therapy dog, for my TIA's...(havnt had any recently, but wont take the chance)
since they resemble seizures, sometimes....he'd guard me and stay with me during any attacks....
I totally recommend for people to do that, who are disabled in any way.....who could use help, I have resources for getting therapy dogs, and, no housing can be denied to you if you have a therapy dog, or even one in training...in most states, laws state you can even take them to work!
I was surprised as hell.
I know some here have medical disabilities....and, this may be a valid option for many...to assist, to help, they can be trained to bring you the phone, to lay down beside you during a siezure or medical problem, like diabetes, etc....whats interesting is that THEY will sense something wrong with You before YOU ever know it....
if youd like more info, just message me, and ill share!
