Hi everyone! I have a little story about my Chis that I wanted to share...today I was walking them around the neighborhood. It was Faiths first walk because she has finally grown enough to wear a harness. Well, she was prancing around acting like she was on top of the world and loving it.
Just before we get back around to our house there is a large section of the road where there is nothing but woods, and on the side of the road we came up on a racoon. I've always been told how dangerous and aggressive they can be so I picked the puppies up and tried to hurry by. As I was passing it though it started to snarl and came towards us. In the moment I must have loosened my grip on Faith because she jumps out of my arms and runs towards the raccoon. She was growling and barking at it like I had never heard her do before. I kept trying to get her back to me without letting Buffy down who was barking at this point too.
I don't know if they actually scared the raccoon away, or if it just decided we weren't worth the trouble, but it went back into the woods. I was so upset because all that I had been thinking was that Faith could have gotten herself killed, but who can stay mad at a brave little puppy who was protecting her mom and sister?
