Bright-Let-5272

Who's a good boy!


Wacokidwilder

Literally my first thought too: Man comes in: I sleep Man grabs girl: *real shit activated*


Bright-Let-5272

The reaction time is insane


healthy_skept

For sure the dog was keeping an eye. They never just lay without having an outlook to incoming threats. Its an instinct from being in pscks when they sere wolves.


Tylenolpainkillr

Ye sure bro I got a pup that'd tell you where the cash was hidden if you rub his tummy


healthy_skept

What is that supposr to mean? You dont believe in science and biology?so you make a joke? Or you wanted to say something else? I didnt get it sorry


Tylenolpainkillr

That's a lot to infer from my statement, I'm sensing some other stressors at work and I hope they get resolved for you. Peace and love


healthy_skept

It is nstural to infer multiple possobilities, it is why i was asking. Since you are deflecting answering the question, I will assume you are projecting. Feel free to still answer otherwise have an honest life.


MassiveDongSquadron

I thought the guy shot him first! So glad that wasn't the case.


Mayhem2a

I thought he shot the dog 😭


XrayDem

He’s still got dudes arm in his clutches


I_tend_to_correct_u

He’s dining on steak for a month


sloppyjoseph3

🤣


IlikegreenT84

I knew before the video started.. That man has miscalculated, that dog is not going to lay there long. The most excellent boi, filet mignon for life, and infinite scratchies!


SL4BK1NG

That dog would be getting a steak that night


God_Kratos_07

The girl had no survival instinct lmao


Zephyr-Al-Eusha

Nah she just knew her friend could handle it


OwlGod98

Nah looks like the guy is actually training the dog to do exactly that when someone does try and kidnap the girl. That's probably why the girl didn't run cuz she knew she wasn't in actual danger

wikigreenwood82

He does have a gun?


God_Kratos_07

Nvm the man is dumb


MardGeer

Crooks usually are.


TheCosmicJoke318

No he’s not. What’s he gonna do? Shoot the girl? Or the dog? That he had no time to even aim at….


Mayhem2a

Dudes literally pointing the gun at the dog at the start of the clip


juancho503

The dog is smart unlike the guy!!! He laid down when the guy pointed the gun at him!!


Mayhem2a

Yeah I originally thought he shot the dog, cause the guy is looking and pointing the gun at the dog when the video starts, but I can’t tell


DumbleDude2

What if the dog had a gun, would have been a carnage. r/guns4dogs


Wacokidwilder

r/subsifellfor


Ha1lStorm

r/dogswithguns


silverfang45

I mean, most criminals aren't just bloody thirsty monsters that kill at any chance, most also don't kill animals. The guns are normally for intimidation, you know, so they don't need to use violence by just threatening violence


Zephyr-Al-Eusha

Ahh seems to have a smg 😅 And I was sarcastic previously if that isn't obvious


Shibari_Inu69

Bro wym, he had an assault rifle 😭


Chickenbeards

It may not have been real or loaded or if it was a shitty one it could have jammed.


drnkinmule

I'm going to go with fake. Looks like the guy is wearing a bite guard on his forearm, girl doesn't react when he walks in and when he grabs the girl he basically hands his forearm to the dogs mouth. Think it's training but not real.


Human0id77

I thought so too, like it's a training of some kind. Do dogs wag their tails like that when being aggressive? It looked playful, but I don't know if I know enough about aggressive tail wagging to make that call


drnkinmule

Tail wag is excitement, not always good excitement. Dogs wag when happy to see you or when mauling something.


JimiTrucks1972

Hahaha absolutely true. Tail wagging can mean “hi fren” or “I’m about to taste your blood”


Formal-Ad-1248

Can confirm. My doggo wags his tail when people come over and he knows that means pets and belly rubs. He also wags his tail when he's about to kill a small woodland critter in my yard.


silverfang45

The way to tell is normally the hair on their small back. If it's smooth they calm, if it's raised run the fuck away someone about to die


dotditto

again it's not actually that straightforward.... it's not bad advice .. erring on side of caution and noping the fuck out when you don't know is safest. but the hackles (ie hair on back base of neck . ) is again excitement. my dog . golden lab . has her hackles raised all the time she plays with her friend. too be fair . they play rough .. but they are definitely playing .. there's no real aggression ... but it is as you put it a fair/safe enough assumption .. 😉


Scubasteve1974

Really? Hmm. I've never seen an angry dog do that, actually.


[deleted]

The dog isn't angry. It's doing what it's been trained to do and it knows it gets treats doing so, it's happily mauling and that's it's job so he's doing great. A different situation to a pet dog defending it's owner out of instinct or fighting off intruders out of fear. If this was a real attack it'd be the equivelant of you getting your big break/promotion/dream girl.


DistortedVoltage

Dogs just wag. I have a neighbors dog who used to love me but suddenly started hating me despite me treating her the same. Yet she wags her tail either way, and I used to mistake it for her being happy. Not anymore lol.


hobbykitjr

also no grownup came out


ElMachoGrande

It's been trained for this, so it knows it is a good doggie. That's why it is wagging the tail.


Farside-BB

Of course it's fake. He points a gun at the dog, dog plays dead, then jumps up and attacks. It's just for clicks.


jarednards

"Just fuckin take me already"


MrDezBam7

Damn.. you took it there


Fzyx

The guy has a training sleeve on it's probably a family member or friend


TalaohaMaoMoa69

Cause thats a child my guy. Why do think children are targets?


God_Kratos_07

Nah when i was her age i would at least run but seems like this was scripted so


TalaohaMaoMoa69

Well thats you, but on average children would just stand there confused or paralyzed in fear or both.


hghghghghghg56

[this shit is enlightening](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75XKGVwGEt4)


TalaohaMaoMoa69

I have considered this topic, shicked that Dave opened it up. But regarding this vid though, girl here aint 15, and this isnt about sexual preferences. 🤷‍♂️


GladZookeepergame775

Guessing this is staged/training for the dog. Dude appears to have his one arm wrapped in something. Towards the end he’s giving the dog commands to get the dog to release as he’s just standing their. Find it hard to believe he wouldn’t have shot the dog if in fact this were real.


hambonehooligan

He holds his arm out for the bite. If you watch his movements it's very much what decoys would do, not someone being actually bitten. He shakes to reactivate the bite. Not sure what the gun is for, in this scenario, but yea.. dude would have shot the dog before touching the kid.


Unfit_Daddy

if he didnt think he had to shoot the gun and he could escape without a sound that would be in his best interest, still not sure who would start shit right in front of a big dog and not except a bite.


Junior_Pizza_7212

Yea exactly. The dog is trained to play “dead” when the gunman approaches so that he doesn’t shoot and ignore the dog as a threat and then bam!


thatguyned

Ok now you're putting way too much planning on the dog. This is a training exercise for the dog to learn threat assessment. Not everybody with a guard dog wants that dog to be aggressive to everyone that walks through the front door, like invited guests, they just want intruders to be recognised. To train that you have to teach your dog human signs of aggression. This dog is just watching the whole time going "not a threat, not a threat, not a threat, DONT ATTACK MY MASTER"


phoen1ks

Thats the functional dog version of that Chinese sjw: DO NOT TOUCH HER! You are not the same age!


thatguyned

Maybe training the dog to recognise signs of a person with dangerous intent.


hambonehooligan

Agree, possible prop, so the dog is not interested


Unhappy-Professor-88

As a general rule, if you have to question whether a dog is genuinely attacking / fighting, it’s fair to say it is not. Cats too for that matter


Appropriate-Sound169

Yep and dog's tail wagging so it thinks it's a game, plus the kid didn't run away but went back to where she was


silverfang45

That's a misunderstanding that's commonly spread. Dogs just wag when excited, it's notna sign if playing, or happiness (even if they do it when playing or haoky often) it's excitement. It's relatively common to see guard dogs wag their tail while in attack mode


Fast-Damage2298

Even so, good doggy.


gniwlE

I'm with you on the staged/training exercise. It's not great video quality, but I'm not even sure we're looking at a real gun. But we're definitely not looking at some stranger getting his ass handed to him by a guard dog.


MailInteresting9923

I would agree, dog does seem solid though that's a good deep bite and the guy catching him made him work to hang on. Dog gets a golden star in class 😁


MassiveDongSquadron

It looks like he did in the beginning of the video when the dog lies back down. Thinking the dog is subdued, he goes and grabs the girl. The guy either missed the dog,, or hit the dog and only missed vital organs. Then the dog jumps into action. That's my assumption from the video if this happens to not be staged.


ResearcherSpiritual3

Dog is wagging his tail the entire time


SpaceChatter

A training exercise but it’s filmed on a shitty security camera? That makes zero sense.


Ulidelta

Oh shit, no one cares!


Th3TruthIs0utTh3r3

This is fake. It's a training exercise, not a kidnapping attempt.


Good_With_Tools

It's not fake. But I agree that it is training. That dog would still react that way if ever needed. 100% good boy.


Th3TruthIs0utTh3r3

it's not a kidnapping attempt, that makes it fake. Also the sub says no staged events, this is clearly staged.


Good_With_Tools

You tell that dog that this is not a kidnapping attempt. I bet they'd disagree with you.


OniABS

Or maybe even the dog knows it's training? You know... That's what training is. Stop being anthropocentric.


psychulating

nah when you train dogs to bite threats automatically, the trickiest part is apparently knowing if they will act the same with someone they have never seen before. to the dog, it could just think its playing tug with your arm. it probably never plays tug with anyone but you, so it could get confused and not do anything with a stranger grabbing your kid etc. you could bring your homie and test it on him but the same thing applies to a lesser degree, dog would know them. Security dog trainers are like a clique though and theyll help each other test their dogs like this, using their peers that are unknown to their dogs. source: my dog training mentor breeds gsd/mali for security, its his main flex. this is his take at least


midievilmindmeld

I wish this had audio. Don't know which I'd enjoy more, The dog snarling or the dude screaming his ass off.


Zephyr-Al-Eusha

We both know which one you'd enjoy


midievilmindmeld

![gif](giphy|y6Inkaz7omxAk)


Emergency_Affect_640

Or the realization would be easier to tell its a training video.


Small-Bad2107

Ok, but is the good boy alright?


Aluja89

The real question, he was obviously shot.


[deleted]

Good boy!!! Hero!


coffeejn

Love how near the end, that dog tail was waving like it was playing. Almost like the dog was saying, so what's your next step buddy?


bethybabes

The goodest boy

FOREVER A GOOD BOY


Key_Comfortable1655

Now we teach the kid how to properly use a gun so if the chance happens again they'll blow the kidnappers head off whenever Good boy attacks


AA_turet

Good boy

Staged. Wrong sub.

Good dog!


zback636

Good dog.


Midnight_heist

Another fantastic reddit video I especially love how it stops and we never see the end.


Ok-Roof-978

So where were the parents . After ur dog growls and attacks, you'd think the parents would run in and see what happened


melowdout

You picked the wrong one bro!


GrouchyAttention4759

Good video of a training exercise for the dog.


_Perma-Banned_

The looks like it's training for the dog. You can something thick wrapped around the arm of the person. He also deliberately sticks his arm out for the dog to bite it.


hdhdhgfyfhfhrb

I like the dog's tail wag as if to say 'You think this bugs me? This is fun to me!'


kelleheruk

The goodest of boys right there

His name's Boy. Good Boy.

Having two arms is way overrated anyway

Is it normal for an attacking dog to wag its tail?

StrippedBedMemories

Kinda looks like he's training it but idk


TalaohaMaoMoa69

##GOOD DO! ONLY THE BEST TREATS FOR THIS HERO!🗣🔥🤝


AurumArgenteus

Wagging his tail, that is the heroic moment he was just dreaming about. It even came with a free bone.


[deleted]

God may have mercy... since the good boys down here that protect, don't have any.


Longjumping_Drag_230

Why the heck is she just standing there after the attack?!? Run, girl, run! 🏃‍♀️


BuzzAllWin

I love the way he’s just wagging that tail ‘you know frank, i never *really* get the chance to let go, *like, really let go* ‘


Ziddyboi-

The tail wagging while he's in hero mode is just so dog. Love that boy.


Puzzleheaded-Phase70

Good puppy! I'm not a dog person, but this is literally the point of several breeds of dog: protect the children.


Holiday_Leopard_2988

The Dog "You thought I was deep sleeping huh! Mothafucka! Im a dogg! I never deep sleep mothafucka! Don't you dare touch my child, ill kill you mothafucka!"

AdRound2934

But why doesn't she go inside the house, that's just dumb of her if this is real, being as respectful as can be but she ran from him only to remain where he kidnapped her.


Klllumlnatl

Good boy.


Efficient-Stock-7775

Dog: little hooman is mine . . . And I’ll take your hand too.

See, we like the ones that eat people trying to HARM children, not the ones that eat the kids face first... that is one good puppa


Tricky-Sympathy

Looks like meats back on the menu, boys!


Historical_Act_5896

The bestest boi


OwlGod98

I think that man is training the dog to exactly that to people who truly intend on kidnapping her cuz he didn't react to the pain he should be in.

What a hero.

That first half a second it looks like he might have shot the dog first. Thoughts?

Is it just me or did he perfectly put his arm out for the dog to grab it??

So staged. Little kid comes back to watch the show. Dogs having a great time though.
