and that you gave the golden's owner a little education on how to properly take care of his dog... I really hope he stops the car crate thing... that's awful!

Being that she is your daughter I see it perfectly natural for her to do what she did. What a great kid you have there.

Glad to hear everything turned out o.k!

How old is she? I would review with her that she could have been in danger, particularly if she tackled another breed of dog. There was a story her just the other day about a pit bull attacking someone.
Do you think you could give your policeman a call and ask him to give the man a warning of some kind. He needs a sitter to come in and let them out. Or really deal with the golden in some kind of training capacity.

Rach is brave....thank goodness she is okay!

Funny how your kids have the same strong feelings about certain things. Your dogs sure are members of your family.

Glad to hear everyone is OK. I can't believe an agresssive golden......but then again, i guess I can, they say there is so much inbreeding and irresponsible breeding, that Goldens (normally such sweet dogs) are getting aggressive, this is such a shame and so sad. Hope everything turns out OK. Your daughter was very brave.

Some darn dog coming after my bulls---heck I dont even want you coming after Augie.

Geez, Ce, things sure get exciting at your place!! Rach certainly is a brave young lady, but I will bet she never even gave it a thought before she threw herself on that Golden. I am glad that everyone is OK for the most part. Rach deserves a medal for saving the yelpster!!

I can't imagine how much trama they have been though for one day. You all were very luck the dog didn't turn on her.

What a day. I hope the man can get his yard fixed. That just seems so weird for a golden. Take care

Rach you wondergirl!!!! I am glad you were able to break it up, but sorry to hear you got a little banged up in the process. Hope you are feeling better. Tell mom to give you and Beanbag extra snacks and treats tonight!

Hate to say this but yo may want to find out what the law is. Your daughter is ok but next time it may be a little one walking a sog and wont be able to defend at all. Or worst yet no neighbors out to help. We found out that You at least have to report, if no one reports your ading to the problem. In my city they know what dogs have attacked on what streets etc. now know what streets NOT to walk down. I HATE TO BE THE DOWNER HERE!!! TRUST ME,,, I AM HAPPY GO LCKY GIRL. But think of it as helping everyone out in your city. I dont want to even get into the fact that he leaves his dogs in the car!!! I would report that 2. I now carry what post men carry when I walk my Angus. I am still freaked out!! Makes me sad since I live in such an amazing city, and every morning and every night when we walk im so jumpy.....

...does she house- and puppy-sit..?? ..I'll pay for airfare as long as she doesn't have to fly Piedmont..!!

Thank God she is O.K. and that BeanBag is in one piece! She is a brave soul.. ..like her momma.. and knows how to protect her pooches.. Give her a hug from us and let her know we're glad she's in one piece!!

Beanbag were not hurt. What a brave thing for her to do, I am just so thankful that she was not bitten.

That was really BRAVE! I don't know if I'd want between an aggressive dog or two! I'm a chicken sometimes:) Hope it doesn't happen anymore. Malinda

Ce,

You taught her well. What she did was very dangerous, I'm glad she has no major injuries. She reacted as best she could to protect her much loved dog. Can't get any better then that.

Lynn K

I am SO glad to hear they are both okay though! You must be so proud of your daughter and how protective she is of your furry babies. She sounds like a wonderful young lady!

Give them both a hug for me!

Deb

Sorry to hear about that incident. Hope Rachel and Beanbag are feeling much better. As for the neighbor, why would he leave his dog in the car all day?? Even at 70 degrees, that is taking a big chance.

I'm glad you got to talk to the owner--and I'm really glad he was so cordial and apologetic---sometimes that doesn't happen I'm especially glad that your babies are okay---what an adventure!?!?!?

Love them Bullies!
