Not "protection for fun" but "attack without any reason" was the point I wanted to show... Jolly is also crazy about protection - so it is not surprising she is called "frog" because of all this crazy things she is doing during the protection....

OK, an example with CzW not trained for protection (but great protection dog in serious cases ).

===============

PLACE: training field

CHARACTERS: dogs (GSDs, Malinios, mixes, aso. + one CzW), their owners and decoy

Shot 1: Dogs are waiting. The decoy comes in protection uniform.
Dogs: Barking.
CzW: Standing and looking.

Shot 2: Decoy running.
Decoy: Uuuuuaaaa uuuuuaaaa uuuuuaaaa [not very convincing]
Dogs: Barking. Froth on their muzzles.
CzW: Standing and looking.

Shot 3: Decoy attacking the CzW
Decoy: Uuuuuaaaa uuuuuaaaa uuuuuaaaa [still not very convincing]
Dogs: Barking. Froth on their muzzles.
CzW: Smile on his muzzle. Falling on ground with the front legs in position "invitation for game": Aaahhhh - you want to play????

============
What to say: I know CzWs which make great protection work. Which really love it. But they like the whole situation. They make it with fun and not with real aggression.... It is one case. The second is: if the CzW makes something with real aggression it must be a real situation (real danger or good decoy ).
