I have a cat, and a little dog. They get along okay actually better than I thought they would, as they are both 8 years old and not raised together. I got the cat last year from the Kootenia Co. Humane Society. The dog, I have had since she was weaned.
My neighbor has a Golden Retriever, and sometimes a Black Lab that comes to visit. I am retired, and am home most days, so I will go get the dogs off from their ropes, let them go do their business, then bring them in my house where it is cooler than outside.
Yesterday the big dogs and my little one were in the house, my little one, Lil Bit, and Cooper the black lab got into a fight over a flip chip. I immediatly broke it up and gave them both a swat, and took the flip chip away from them both. Right at that time, My cat, Kitty Joe came in thru the window I keep open for him. He was loaded for Bear. or in this case a Black Lab. He came in the window growling, I am sure if I hadn't have already stopped the fight, that Joe would have stuck up for Lil Bit and would have taken Cooper on. Too bad that Lil Bit won't remember this the next time she is in bed with me and Joe comes in and starts "talking" If I don't hold her down she will run him off in a heart beat.
