Bo is most definitely a guardian. Her father was from working stock, so she got a really strong guarding instinct from him (I think). She's a therapy dog and works wonders with seniors and the mentally ill, but come at me sideways or glance at our house, and she's there to let you know not to get too close!! She barks at anything that could be considered a threat (mouse farts, wind, the creek, buzzards, mosquitos, the voices in her head...), so we're constantly having to check out whatever the offending thing is!! Floyd, on the other hand, can't be bothered to get out of bed to check something out unless he thinks there is food in it for him!!!
Jenn, Bo & Floyd
