…. and they had a sign up that said something like warning guard dogs on duty and I was talking
to his mother and one day some salesman drove up their long driveway and got out of his car
and one of the dogs put one of his wrists in his mouth and the other Great Dane took a hold of
his other wrist and then the dogs walked the guy up to the front door where his mother asked the
man if saw the sign about not getting out of his car? She pointed to the man’s car and the dogs
walked him back to his car and dropped the man’s wrists from their mouths when they got to his
car. However if the dogs knew you were a friend or a guest on the property they just loved to be your
buddy. They liked to sleep next to or on top of you and play with you too. Is that a Blue Healer dog
too?

Dogs are the best people.
