Lol...Talking about watch dogs. I had a e-mail about a year ago There were a few guys on horse back and a couple pack mules returning from a hunt. They had a movie of that mule ripping into a mountain lion. The mule clobbered it!!! Trust me, after seeing that, I can see why sheep ranchers keep a mule with the flock. If I ever go back packing with a mule, he will be treated with respect!!!
