Thank you! I will try. Had to admit, I hit her (which pain-wise, she didn't feel a squad). And I HATE doing that! Doesn't mater if I hit her, she will still protect me. That's how much she is faithful to me. And I appreciate it. BUT...
I will try to calm hew down and comfort around people I trust.
Thank you!

They are smart. Teach her "It's Okay" and she'll learn.
I had one I showed extensively. When I had a show lead on Vennie, a man could walk up to me, touch me and wave his arm around (a judge sometimes to make sure she/he has your attention, will lightly touch your shoulder and then indicate the "pattern" wanted to see the dog's movement). However a "working" leash or no leash? Noo way. Walking up was watched and touching or arm swinging could mean loss of an arm. Once he knew the person, much more leeway. But the dogs have boundaries they won't allow. All you have to do is tell them "From THIS person, it's okay."

Great stories and nice to know I can count on my girl if needed. The mail man leaves my boxes by the garage now. Even tho Aurora cannot go through brick walls. But she is protecting.
On another side, I cannot hug a man in my house! A friend, my brother, father or my boyfriend. It is getting ridiculous and frustrating. I know she is protecting me, but would like her to know that if I come close to somebody, she doesn't need to be alert. Sigh...maybe one day...

Chancy was off doing his doggy things and didn't notice I'd exited the gate. I walked around to the side of the house where the vines were. THEN he took notice and came unglued! As far as he knew, some stranger was approaching the fence and it was his job to protect his gardening mom. Of course he was all waggles when he got close enough to realize it was me, but it took me aback to see this normally goofy loving boy, turn into 90 pounds of snarling, barking, dog charging the fence. It felt good to know I could count on him if needed, but I would not have wanted to be a burglar on the other end of that!

While I was in town my wife, who had been away for a couple of days arrived home. I got home and she was in her office on the computer and our two lovable three year old puppies were lying on the floor next to here. I walked in the door wearing a neck brace, and suddenly I had two 70 pound guardians barking at me and not wanting to let me go any further. I took the brace of and and all of a sudden the room was quiet and tails stubs were wagging. I spoke to them and they rushed me like they always do. It made me feel good that even though I was there owner, the fact that they did not recognize me put them on alert. Made my wife feel good also.
