I owned a beautiful calico cat as a child. My family also owned a boston terrier. Susie (the cat) was very fond of Flash (the dog) and was about a year older than him. Flash was very protective of her and us kids. One day on my way home from school I saw Flash race past me on the sidewalk heading toward our house where another dog had Susie tree'd.
Flash tore into the other dog and they fought and postured for quite a while. In the meantime Susie very nonchalantly climbed down from the tree, walked over to the porch step, sat down and began washing her paw as if nothing was happening. Talk about a princess!
Oh yeah, Flash ran the other dog off - I don't think either one of them was hurt. |
