    Brave puppy fends off intruders from family home invasion while his senior canine siblings stand watch: ‘I have never been more thankful for my puppy's giant bark’

    They say that the best things come in small packages, and judging by the hero of this story, we cannot help but agree. For in the darkest moment that this canine pack had been through, the tiniest pup of the lot was the one who stood up to the powers of evil and protected his family home. His siblings did their best to bark along with their brother, but something in this tiny tyke's spirit made it so that he would be the central hero of this story. His loyalty to his family extracting a fierce growl that far outsized the mouth it came from.

    So the next time someone tells you they are going to adopt a doggo to have someone to watch their house. Remind them that it is loyalty and courage that determine a great defender and that size hardly matters. You want a doggo who is far outsized by his bark, such that one does not even get to the bite.

    • Well, as it has been well documented through the medium of hilarious dog memes, some doggos are more about protecting their possibilities for cuddles, rather than protecting their family home. It dosen’t make them any less, it is just what their soul dictates. Not everyone was made for the guard dog life.

    • Well, what an episode. It truly goes to show that you never know who will be the one to step up and have your back. And more so than that, that it is often the person (or in this case dog) that you least expect support from who will be there to back you up in your time of need. Just like this powerful pupper, who no one expected to step up and take control of the situation.

      But yeah, a big deep bark is awesome. And I agree that dogs are great deterrents, but I'd never actually want them to defend me either. Big dogs are for being pillows.
