VIDEO

The black mixed breed male was attacked by the male short-haired German Shepherd a few minutes before this video was filmed. A male long-haired German Shepherd approaches the mixed breed, lifting a paw in an invitation to play, then moves into an anti-parallel position and sniffs him. The mixed breed leaves, head and tail lowered, ears back. When the Shepherd turns toward him, the mixed breed lies down, then leaps and runs away, trying to hide behind the chairs. He stops, panting with eyes wide open, ears back. The long-haired Shepherd walks in front of the mixed breed, flicks his tongue and leaves, lowering his head when the other Shepherd approaches. The female Golden Retriever interposes herself between the two males. The short-haired Shepherd sniffs the mixed breed and, when he is called by his owner, leaves.
