Lolly is protective over Reece. Its so cute. I took Lolly with us to obedience since Reece's class is in the late evening and I didn't want to leave her alone yelping and bugging the neighbors at that hour. When I was having them potty before class, a dog came up and started sniffing Reece and she stood in front of him and growled at the dog. She also did it a few times after class to other dogs. I don't think she'd do anything past verbal warnings but I was right there to break anything up if it happened.
