I HEAR A STORY ABOUT ONE OF OUR KIND

I heard this true story of a young ( under one year old ) white Bull Terrier name Snap, somewhere, some time in the US.

Snap was quite a character, self confident, take no shit from nobody type ( hmmm..that is our kind alright ) and was the co-owner with his boss of the farm he lived in.

One day he confronted a wild animal that intruded the farm, they said it was a wild dog. A vicious fellow that was much larger than young Snap. Snap did his job and killed the animal after a vicious fight. Snap was badly injured too.His boss kept him indoors for rest and recovery.

Before he can recover fully, there was another intruder. This time a large wolf.
On that fateful day, the large wolf was cornered by a whole pack of dogs of the farming community; all types, including big fellows like Great Danes . But none dare to make the first move, the wolf is one big manacing wild customer.

Alot of barkings , fake charges, but just a 'show down' with nothing really happening.

Suddenly , a white shadow charged past the circle of dogs. It was Snap, for he heard the disturbances. He gave a disappointed glance at these cowardly folks ( almost saying WHAT YOU GUYS ARE WAITING FOR ! )as he head straight for the wolf. He went for the throat, but his old injuries slowed him. But he still caught the wolf's jaws and he hang on there and never let go. After a brief moment that lasted an age for the young Snap, the pack of dogs finally got the guts to charge and killed the wolf.

Young Snap die of his old and new injuries. The passing of a true blue Bull Terrier.
All Bullies round the world salute you.

Note: We Bullies do not have the miss guided hatred of wolves , like human beings do. Wolves have to hunt to survive. Sometimes they have no choice but take on an occasional cow or sheep owned by humans. What do you expect them to do to live ? Be a farmer and plant potatoes?. But then they crossed paths with humans and they were labered BIG BAD WOLVES. Accused of every crime known to humans ,and probably only commited by humans,justifications were made for wolves to be slaughtered to almost extinction in the last 200 years. It was until recently that they are spared and allowed to live in some areas like Yellow Stone Park of the US and in Eastern parts of Germany. Truely , another sad tale for our related kind, some say they are actually our ancestors...

There was not a single record documented of a healthy wolf having attacked a human.
