Okay, so this weekend I am home alone as Julian's gone away.... So on these occasions, I allow Scarlet to sleep in our bed. Partly cuz I like cuddles and partly cuz I HATE being home alone and get scared! lol.
4:30 am, she jumps over top of me onto the floor screaming and jumps up on the bedroom door scratching to get out. I whip out of bed like WHAT the hell?! .. I have never heard this type of bark come out of her little body. I open the bedroom door, she boots it upstairs runs directly to the front door and over to the bay window beside it. Hasn't stopped barking for like 2 mins by now, is up in the bay window, jumping up and down on her front legs. I'm looking around the house and out the window, no one there... But shit it scared the hell out of me!!
It amazed me how she heard something from our room in the basement coming from the other side of the house upstairs. She's always on high alert when I am home alone though as it is every few weeks Julian goes on fishing trips. I think she knows to be a bit more protective of me.... Just as she gives the stink eye to all men when with just me, but with Julian that doesn't happen lol.
Has there ever been a specific situation where your dog has protected you? I mean above and beyond the every day wonderful job they do .
I have seen what i thought to be her protective side, and she does bark at noises and things which I totally expect and love about her but this was a whole other situation/bark. I really do think she heard something and knew it wasn't normal. She has never gone to the window like that or front door and acted that way... Definitely took a while to get back to sleep LOL. but I did feel safe with Scarlet on one side and Julians skinning knife on the other lmao.
