We’re up visiting our granddaughter, Clara, 4 months old today) for a few days.
When we walk the dogs they run out in front, off to the side - anywhere but to heel unless told to be there.
Today Jan, Clara, Alex (dil) and the boys went for a walk. Barley and Basil stayed right next to the pushchair all way through the walk, even throwing a stick wouldn’t shift them.
How do they know?

Incredible isn’t it , we’ve got a King Charles and a Staffy ( picture post up ) and I can see why staffys are sometimes referred to as nanny dogs. They really fuss over kids. But it’s like Rob says , it’s in them to protect. Before we rehomed Ruby our staffy I’d just take our King Charles and my mums Pug / King Charles cross out. We were on the moors and a guy was heading towards us with a couple big dogs. The pug cross which is soft as shit spotted them first and put herself between our daughter who was about 3 at the time and the other dogs , soon joined by our Cavalier. Both dogs growling until the other dogs passed.
It was actually quite moving.

My lovely JR Mi-Mi used to protect mice that the cats caught by gently holding them in her mouth and simultaneously growling at the cats to back off.
Spaniel logic… if I wedge my head in here and don’t move apart from the odd belch… I will definitely get a treat. Yep. For sure.
