When your guardian dog saves you from attack

[Nik]

Diesel just saved my life! I opened the door to let the pups in from a potty break and the most giant green bug flew in and attacked my foot! This creature was half the size of my foot and I started screaming as I leapt back and screamed some more in fear.

Diesel instantly leapt to my aid and herded the thing away from me and then he pounced on it grabbed it up in his mouth and shook and shook. Then dropped it and the monster got up again!

More screaming from me and “Get it Diesel! Get it! Kill it! Get it!”

Diesel pounces it again and does the kill shake again then realizing I am still in a panic he runs from the room carrying the creature as far from me as he can. He drops it in the other room and then gets in a gaurd stance standing over it.

At this point I call my husband in a panic. I am hyperventilating and half in tears.
“A giant bug attacked me and diesel got it but it might still be alive and he is standing over it and I dont know what to do! It could still be alive! IT IS IN THE HOUSE!!!!!!”

So he tells me to put a glass over it and slide a piece of mail under it to trap it. I cautiously approach the beast and quickly do so.

The creature didnt move again so I am fairly sure it was dead but wasnt sure enough to proceed any further.

When husband came home he laughed at me. He says this horrific man eating giant bug monster that attacked me was a grasshopper.



So Diesel saved my life. Afterwards Diesel, Kahlua and BrrBeary all piled on top of me and tried to calm me.

Once husband came home and removed horrific monster bug from house Diesel decided it was time to celebrate.... by fornicating with his bed.

You crack me up! I'm laughing myself senseless.

You crack me up! I'm laughing myself senseless.

My husband now having been home several hours has already recreated the story casting me as the villain who had my dragon (ie diesel) attack and kill the poor defenseless critter seeking shelter from the night. He then further asserts that I may have traumatized Diesel by “forcing” him to kill a “gentle” creature.

I, however, assert that monster was neither defenseless or gentle. I also did not force Diesel to attack. He lept to my defense before I could gather myself to do more then scream.

Now the finishing off of the critter may have been instigated by me since I did actually command him to “get it” and “kill it”. So perhaps I am a little villainous afterall.

But i will say that diesel in no way seems traumatized. If anything he is acting proud of himself and extra attentive to me.

In any case the husband has instructed me to capture and free any future invaders into our home.... i am not sure I can comply though.

What a great way to start the day! Hahaha, thanks for the laugh! I do try to catch and release all insects that I find in my home, with the exception of house centipedes. The ones with the really long, creepy legs. Those things just aren't right. I also have a really funny story about me reading in bed and a spider, but I'll spare you.

Oh I forgot to add that Kahlua was also terrified of the monster and refused to come in the house until after Diesel had moved it to the other room and killed it.

That sounds like a traumatic story. Worse yet a good friend of mine recently woke to find s rat sitting atop her in bed.

I told her she needs dogs and cats that can sleep with her and protect her.
