Is your pet protective of you?

[CagneyDog]

Cagney kind of is , he doesn't like when other dogs jump on me or when people come shake my hand/hug me etc. He's gotten pretty snarly about that before.

[Miss Z]

I voted yes and no. No way for Foxy, she's far too small, and Zsa-Zsa would be more likely to look out for herself but Tia sometimes is! She's no ferocious beast, being a tiny little rattie, but she tries, bless her!!! Occasionally, when someone reaches out for something near me, Tia must think that they're going to hit me, and she runs to where she thinks they'll strike, stops, and sort of curls herself up. She only really does it though when the movement is sudden, when you try to make her do it by pretending, she knows, and just tries to jump on your hand She's the only guard i'll ever need

Roscoe is! I call him my shadow - he follows me around and is always by my side. Anytime hubby and I goof around, Roscoe is right there to make sure that I don't get hurt. I think that anyone who would break into our house would be sorry!

Autumn used to be protective of me, but she's figured out I'm dominant and no longer offers her service to me. She's protective of my mom and the kids though.

Murph not at all. Oz and Gull I would classify more as watchers and announcers, not really protective. They let me know something's up, but expect me to take care of it. Whenever I go investigate, they're both always following behind me, covering my rear flank.

Course I dunno if someone actually attacked me, they might surprise me and jump into the fray, to protect me.

Tango can be very protective of me someyimes but she's gettig better with that. The Dobermans aren't really protective of me specifically, but they're extremely protective of my family.

Nanook is just like your Murph, Kaige & Raustyk are just like your Oz & Gull.

I think that at least Raustyk & Kaige would actually jump in if someone were to attack me or hurt me.

Mandy is only protective if she thinks something/someone is trying to hurt me. But if someone just shakes my hand, it just makes her want to kiss them more, seeing that I approve.

Nova would still get them to try to play with her. I don't think she has a mean bone in her body.

Luka, well, I'm not sure really. I haven't had an instance come about to see if she would. Something tells me she would, but I'm not positive.

I voted no.. 2 of my pets could careless about me. the other tries to kill me, anyone else near him & everything he can get his chompers on 24/7

My old dog was quite protective, but smart. He attacked my dad once thinking he was hurting me. dad was fine, it was an accident. I called Max thinking he knew who was on the other side of the door tickling me, as I had been locking dad out of the house for a while & Max did see him at the patio door (Max was laying on the couch). So ya, he ripped dad through the door & shook him like a ragdoll. I yelled stop, & Max stopped & then realized who it was. He wasn't punished, he was praised for being a good boy (he was my personal guard dog).

My sisters cat is protective of my sister.. Its funny, when ever her boyfriend would tickle her, her cat would attack the boyfriend hehehe... It was funny cause she thought the cat would do the same to me.. But nope, Spliff just sat there & watched me tickle the hell out of my sister. Ther reason why is because Max is protective of me & he was barking at us & the cat knew not to get in his way hehehehe

[dogzr#1]

Prince isn't quite a protector but he barks when he sees someone coming.
Astra isn't anything of a good watchdog. She just wants to play.
Molly is a pretty good watchdog. Whenever my brothers and I wrestle she will start to bark thinking that they are hurting me.

[Anita Cholaine]

Yes!! Anita is very protective with us, and with the house in general. When she hears any noise, she's inmediately barking all over the house...

[Buddy Blaze Lover]

Blaze is EXTREMELY protective, and would give his life before anything would happen to anyone in our family!

[luvofallhorses]

all of my dogs except Ginger (since she's so small..) will protect the whole family. and if it were just me and the dogs in the house..they would definately protect me. and vise versa with my parents.

[pitc9]

Buddy is YES!!!! (too much )
Sierra.... eh.... when she feels like it!

[i_love_nicki]

Yes! Very! He doesn't like strangers at all.... he barks whenever someone shakes my hand or anything they do like that
