One morning of the neighborhood boys were walking to school down the middle of the street right down the center yellow line like tough boys do. I had backed up into the corner of the yard behind the fence covered in brush. I hit the automatic gate opener and our Rotty heads straight for the gate just he does every morning like this will be the morning I'll let him out to roam free.
The two boys stop in mid-stride, eyes wide open when they see the gate open and our Rotty standing there staring very intently at them. They are just about to run away when I pulled out of the gate, so they just stand their frozen until the gate closed completely. The look on their faces were priceless when they thought our dog was about to come after them.
I admit he is very intimidating, and I've had several people passing by ask if he bits and I always tell them yes. Heck, with a dog like that... you never know!
