my question is after the cat chased the dog when mom went to her child after the attack...it looked to me that she ( the mother) immediately left the kid exactly where he was...now did I see that or am I crazy...Ed ----- Original Message ----- From: "Martello, Carolyn" <marhaven@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "showgsd-l" <showgsd-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>, Peg@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Farm, Theresa-GSD" <scenecrest.geo@xxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 15, 2014 10:46:40 AM Subject: [ SHOWGSD-L ] Re: Dog Attack on Little Boy ... Boy's Cat I might add..... I think that dog is a "killer". There was no provocation for it to come around that car and happily go after that small child....and had the HERO CAT not thwarted the attack, it could have, and would have likely been fatal and not a video of a GREAT CAT.  Not to start a 'war'....but... What I do not like about that Breed is how they show NO CHANGE in behavior for a warning before they just happily go about their business and go in for an attack. Most Breeds at least show some behavioral changes..from hackles up, tail UP, head lowered, growling, barking, etc. that gives you a warning.....
