I read about him in the newspaper. They had his picture too. Great dog!

aww what a great name for such a helpful pooch! I'm glad he changed it from Barry White....Scooby cartoon or real pooch is brave whether he knows it or not!

Very brave despite his tv namesake. I hope Scooby got a big steak dinner as a reward.

GOOD DOG!!

Here's the thing. When you have a good, smart dog who has a real bond with his person, he is VERY tuned in to that person. If their person feels threatened and goes on high alert, the dog knows it instantly and will protect with all the wolf in his heart, no matter how sweet he may be in normal life. That's what this dog did. My guess is Scooby knows nothing of the poor girl who escaped being raped by that horrible scumbag, he only knows that he held a bad guy at bay because his person coveyed the red alert. What an excellent dog! Scooby is that man's true companion; he not only loves his person but has his back. I'm so proud of him!

Hoo, I'm proud of both of them. They are both heros in my book, along with the others who joined the chase. I hope the courts will follow up and bury that perp under the jail. $200,000 bond is a very nice start (thank you, Judge!).

You couldn't have said it better Suzzzz.
