My apologies to long time readers who have seen this video, but we were watching the stunning bravery that Dennis the Vizsla Dog was demonstrating on his blog yesterday. Yes, Dennis protected his family from a horrendous amphibious assault. In the background of the video, you can hear the terror in their voices as he ruthlessly risks himself for their defense.
For some reason, it reminded us of the same bravery demonstrated by Qannik when we were attacked by a . . . ski jacket. This is almost like the opening sequence to Saving Private Ryan.
Don’t we all feel safer knowing that Dennis and Qannik are protecting us?

Wings of Doom
December 12, 2024
A simple nightly routine with my dogs led me to face the wings of doom, a hideous creature that lurks in the shadows of my yard.

His books pay for our food!
Bravery and chivalry are NOT dead. The other day I defended my family from a hat! True story. It was sitting on a rock and I thought it was a very tiny very bad guy. I saved them all.

Qannik you are so brave to protect you pack from that Ski Jacket! Looks like we need you around to protect us from the washing baskets – we don’t like them!
Licks and lots of slobber,

So cute! Dennis is adorable at how proud of himself he is at his bravery…and Qannik’s sounds of bravery are inspiring the two doggies in this house to also be very brave in the face of…nothing! 😉

Oh Qannik – my human was laughing at your video – just like she laughed at Dennis’s but I totally see your point! I would have been suspicious too! Humans just don’t know all the DANGEROUS things we protect them from!! 😉

What I do is I bark the thunder away when it comes, but jackets, no, they have arms, nor would I want to take on a giant sea turtle who was sleeping. Thats just foolish!
Specialize, you guys, thats what I do!
Kisses,
Stella
So heroic! That was almost like watching it thru the eyes of Rusty – love those between the ear shots. Aw, Kiska does try to be helpful, doesn’t she?

Qannik is SO funny! What a brave pup! And I just love Rusty sitting on your lap, so cute.
At least Qannik got a few barks in! I loved it when he looked at you like, “Hey, didn’t you notice that ski jacket over there? Do something!”
I feel safer, especially knowing that both coasts are protected!
I’m not sure which part cracked me up more — King Rusty on his lap throne or Qannik defending The Herd from the jacket! Hu-Dad, how did you manage to film it without even a snicker of laughter? I love seeing The Herd in action!
Great work, Dennis and Qannik. Recently, I have had to protect that mom from two so-called lamps that she allowed to infiltrate her bedroom. She was oblivious to the great danger they posed, and it took several weeks of me growling and knocking them over before she finally removed them. I expected praise for my bravery, but so far none has come from her. What’s up with that?

What would we do without them? Those sneaky rocks and ski jackets – you can never turn your back on them!!
Sam
It’s okay Qannik. I once heard of a serial ski jacket. The Herd will thank you one day.
