[QUOTE="Steely, post: 299516, member: 3301"] Toto......you did make me smile:happy: Thanks. Janet, thanks for asking Jamie about this. That makes me feel better. No the dogs did not act lilke they did anything wrong afterwards - however - I have to say that I live in a wide desert area. When we go on walks there are bunnies, lizards, and many other animals that they try and catch. It is a hard atmosphere for a dog not to feel like he is on the "hunt". I think to them it felt like the small dog was just something else to catch. Do you think this means that they are viscous, or a liabiility, and should be put down? Or do you think something is wrong with their brains? Or do you think this is a normal pack mentality for dogs to defend, hunt, and protect? (The third dog was on a much shorter leash so I had total control over him and he was not involved. He is only 15lbs - so that is the irony - my 2 bigger dogs have never been aggressive towards the smaller one. I guess they know he is part of their pack?) I guess I just want to know if this is normal behavior for dogs in this scenario. [/QUOTE]
