Dogs are great, especially to protect the home when you are not there, but
the reality is that there are times that a dog is as vulnerable as a person.
I remember being on a hike when I was a boy scout. The scout master had a
dog and we ended up getting on the same path as what turned out being a
sick cougar. Sadly the cougar got the best of the poor dog, but the scout
master got the best of the cougar with his Winchester 30-30 lever action.
Given the option, I prefer to have both.
In liberty,
Scott
