So for clarification, this is Janey, she was trained from a pup to guard and guide my kids when they go outside. I live in New England and my backyard is miles and miles of woods teeming with wildlife. They are allowed to just go and explore if and only if Janey is with them. The neighborhood kids always come over and ask to borrow her so they can go on hikes or explore as well. The "gun" here was placed by my youngest because he call her "The Real Paw Patrol".
I'm not sure if you guys will accept her as a working dog or not. If not, then I understand and no harm done.
I think it's better for r/aww. Combination of Rule 2
Here are some things that DO NOT count as a silly job:
A dog "babysitting" your kids
And rule 5:
No house "guard dogs" allowed
That's fair. But for your purposes, shes is NOT a house guard dog. She is not allowed to work while she is inside. It is her playspace. She is fully trained for SnR. She is also trained to protect and guide the boys when they are out in the woods. I have her trained so that if she sees or hears anything she must stand in front of them no more then 4-6ft and bark in the direction of the issue while pushing/nudging the boys back. When the command Find home is said, she will guide them back home. While I would love to get video of her doing this, when we are on the job, we are on the job. The only electronics we hold when on the job is a GPS locator, and a radio.
Thank you for listening and I understand why it was removed.
