The Norman Bates incident was pretty similar to
@C908
Woman being assaulted.
Was my first or second experience with the show, and the last.
Daisy.
From behind me as the assault started going down I heard a rumble of growl that escalated to full blown rapid bark burst, and a will to end the struggle.
TSOM, the scene where Captain Von Trap calls down all his children with various whistles, and barking out orders. Very stern.
Daisy was less than a year old.
I was out in the garage polishing some parts and both dogs were in with the kids. After dinner, dark. Kids winding down.
From out in the garage I all of the sudden hear this large, pissed off dog.
In my house!!
First thought was I had left the front door unlocked and someone walked in.
Second thought, is that my little Daisy puppy making that noise??
Blast in the house.
Both kids on the couch, laughing their asses off!
Daisy placed herself between them and “the threat” her front paws both up on the coffee table, glaring at the TV, fangs out, growling, she never really stopped barking until I told her off the table.
Told her to stop and go to her place.
As she started to lay down ol Captain started ordering kids around again.
And again, she was on her feet, rapid 5 bark burst, fangs, a serious intent on her part.
She also once laid on my lap and watched a one hour NatGeo deal on the wolves of Yellowstone.
No barking or any of that just watching, mesmerized by it all. She was always keen on recognizing “Wild” canines.
