Yay! Way to go Joel! =D
I remember the first time DH and I heard our big dog (a GSP) give a protection bark! We had gotten him in May and our first daughter was born in July so this had to be August or September. We had all gone to bed and an empty coffee can fell off of the dryer. Buddy bolted up, went to the bedroom door and barked the biggest, most menacing bark ever! Wow, if it had been a person there I am sure that they'd be crapping themselves! We told him that he was a great boy and DH took him all around the house to prove that everything was ok. I've felt pretty darn safe ever since! =D
My Blazer baby thinks that he's a tough guy and tries to protect us from everything. We're working on the "stop" command now. =)
