| My little hero I just have to post to tell the world how proud I am of my little guy -- he's a hero in my book. I live in a very nice condo building that recently has had a series of troubling break-ins. Last week, there was another attempt. At about 11 a.m., someone knocked on my front door (though I know there was no one else home in the building at the time and you can only get into the interior of the building by key). My little tiger barked up a storm and ran to "protect" the front door. I could tell from his bark that that something was wrong (not just a neighbor knocking on the door). Something told me not to go to the door. Minutes later, someone tried to break down my neighbor's back door. I heard the noise and called the police. I was terrified, but I know that Archie will always let me knoe when something's happening. So, next time anyone tells you you don't have a "real" dog -- think of my little Archie and how he protected his mom from the bad guys! Here's my little watchdog, below ...

| No -- the police didn't catch them. It's a mystery who has been doing this to our building (we have just 8 units), but it's clear someone has been watching our comings and goings. Very scary!

Bella Boo & Diggy Too! Donating GS Member | Hero Holy crap what a close call! Give Archie a treat from me!!! Ohhh isnt that aggrevating when people say thats not a dog, its a rat!!!! I turn into insto BBiooTTcchhhh Id put my dogs heart and love up against ANY big dog out there. I know my Bella would lay her life down for me....NO DOUBT she enters rooms first...enters doors first, and ALWAYS between me and whoever I am face to face with...people dont notice, but i do. Even my neighbor who she loves Larry, well Larry notices she bolts at him full tilt and sits at his feet like DO NOT take another step towards my mommy..... Archie IS a hero and my guess is he would match up to any big dog too! After all isn't it us "women" who say size doesnt matter??? Oh wait no...thats men that say that...different story...

| Awwww.....they are such good little protectors, arne't they? Archie is an absolute DOLL baby! What a sweet face he's got! That's so scary that there's such creepy people around, you must be petrified! I hope they catch whoever it is and put them out of commission. Max goes nuts when someone comes anywhere near the front door, regardless of who it is, and he always knows when someone even walks up to put a flyer on the porch. It's a little unnerving to have a dog barking hysterically when you're trying to open the door (I pick him up first), but on the other hand, he's a pretty good little watchdog, so I can't really complain too much. He doesn't know who's on the other side, and neither do we! I can't imagine anyone actually saying to my face that he's not a real dog....I'd probably bite them if they said something so rude...either that, or have them try to pet Max without him knowing them, and let him do the biting, LOL. Nahh....not really; I'd have to be the one doing the biting

Donating YT 11K Club Member | He is your little hero. Archie is so cute! The other day I was at my brother's condo with Teddy and London. All thru the night Teddy kept barking at the door protecting me and my bf. I feel safe with him Then there's little London that barks if Teddy barks lol

| How scary I'm glad that you have your big bad boy to guard you! Hopefully they'll catch this scumbag soon Maybe the building super should put in hidden cameras on the property?

| Thank goodness for Archie!!!! Do you think it is someone who has acess to the building?? maybe a friend or something of one of the owners?? Maybe they need to check to see who has given keys out or lost their keys?? Just stay safe and be aware of your comings and goings!! Don't keep the same routine if you can help it!!! Thats how most burglars operate..wait to see folks routines and go from there!!
