German Shepherd Protects His Boy || ViralHog

Occurred on November 8, 2022 / USA

"Our 6-year-old son on Nov 8, 2022, was playing with his best friend, 1-year-old German shepherd Tank, in the front yard in South Florida. The front door neighbor's dog got loose and charged at our son, Tank pushed our son down and stood over him to protect him, and chased the other dog until the threat was gone. You can see our blue nose pitbull run out of the garage for backup but Tank had it under control. Our son was fine and the other dog was taken back home by his owner."

That good boi went from "playtime puppy-mode" to "get-down-Mr. President-mode" real quick. He gently nudged his boy down to protect the boy's neck from the gaping jaws of the other dog. That's pure protection instinct passed down from generations of his domesticated ancestors right there. Another score for team doggo vs team top cats on which is the better protector debate. I'm a cat person btw and this video blew my mind.

THAT GOOD BOY DESERVES A STEAK What a great protective friend.

What a smart dog. Every movement he made was to protect the kid. That dog is a guardian angel. 🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼

Notice how the shepherd is in full defensive mode at the end. Firm stance, tail up and keeps a close eye on his family and the other dog. Wonderful creatures! 🐕

How the shepard breaks off after first contact to protect his boy gives me chills. Alpha

That GS had control of the situation the entire time. Excellent job good boi

0:24 - 0:29 I just love this part. The GS just standing there making sure the other dog doesn't attack again, and then that one quick look he gave to the kid and his mom as if saying, "are you guys okay?"
This family is so lucky to have him in their home.

It’s amazing he knew to push the kid down. He knew exactly what he was doing, and had perfect timing.

Amazing. Let’s also not forget the backup doggo. They deserve the whole world.

[Butcher]

The real question should be, where did the 3rd dog go?

[evocarti]

I love how at the beginning it's just a dog and his human about to have a chill day. Then, in the blink of an eye a threat is registered and it's on.

This video brought tears to my eyes. The dog has more loyalty and situational awareness than most people.

Amazing that he actually pushed her down and away, chased it off while standing ground and looking back to make sure she was ok.
JUST WOW

[elisiaw]

The way the GS looks back to check mom had her son & then stands guard of them both 😢 The bestest boy

[Maria-mkuj]

To those wondering about the other dog, one commenter said it was standing right off camera and on guard. The mother posted another angle on her TikTok.

I have watched this 20 times at least. That dog was more brave and more protective and his instincts were a lot better than some people I know. I’m crying. That’s a good boy right there

[sweetpeafox]

Someone give that good boy a treat for defending his little friend. Thank the lord that no one was hurting.

[lorin_barry]

It’s hard to not tear up watching this. The power that dog had; sending the aggressive dog scooting across the pavement. He was ready to defend his friend 🙏🏻

[oblivion]

His instincts are so lightning quick! Even after he chases away the black dog, he focuses in on the kid then the dog and back again repeatedly. His tail wags when his eyes are on the kid but immediately stops and at full attention, attack mode ready when they're back on dog. Love his body language - what a GREAT Dog!!!

Amazing. This German Shepherd was so confident and relaxed protecting his little human playmate. He was not some raging hound from hell but he responded like a human martial artist coolly meeting the aggressor, putting it down and showing the other dog who was boss. This hero canine is the perfect family dog every person dreams of owning.
