When our pets get caught doing something they know they’re not supposed to do, they usually fall into one of two categories: instantly pleading guilty or showing absolutely zero remorse. Amanda Michelle recently caught her Great Pyrenees trying to steal a chicken, and his reaction definitely leaned toward the latter.
Make sure your sound is on so you can hear Amanda holler at him from across the yard. Her first shout stops him dead in his tracks. When she tells him to drop it, he pauses to weigh his options before finally letting the bird go. The chicken wastes no time scurrying away to safety!
We laughed when we read Amanda’s caption, “Not all heroes wear capes.” We’re sure the chicken would agree! She definitely saved a life today!

We totally agree with @Gina Star, who said, “There’s no way my dog would have listened from that far away and a fence in between us.” Amanda replied, “He’s a good boy even when he’s not, LOL!” Another commenter added, “Wow. He’s naughty and a good listener at the same time.”
