Toddler adorably helps dog get over fear of ‘evil sprinkler’

One of the reasons we get a dog is to guard and protect us and our home.

Even if we install security systems, it’s always different when you have a dog at home.

They don’t just watch over and protect you; they are also great companions.

They’re like “buddy-guards” that you can be all cuddly with the whole day, but they would be willing to come at anyone who can be a potential danger.

We heard stories of dogs being heroes to their humans.

They defend their humans – tiny or grown-up – from other wild animals, accidents, and even other dogs.

Their battle scars are reminders of their heroism. However, this dog tried to fight off what he thought was harming his little hooman.

Amanpreet Singh uploaded this video of a toddler – maybe around two years old – having fun with their garden sprinkler.

His fluffy friend was behind him, on guard against anything that harmed him.

However, he mistook that the sprinkler was harming his little human.

The protective German Shepherd gave his most furious attack on the water beast.

He nudged the child a bit, just enough to stay away from his attacker.

Then, he gave that jet of water his biggest, deadliest chomp! His humans were behind him, laughing their heads off because… who wouldn’t laugh at the sight of a GSD biting furiously at a water sprinkler?

*Chomp* *Chomp* *Chomp* He went out for more.

He was fearless and never backed down from that strong blast of water from the sprinkler.

The four-legged hero went back and forth from the closest to the farthest water stream.

Then, he would occasionally back down a little to shake some water – and his bruised pride – off.

And although it seemed like the sprinkler was winning on that one, we’d give a point to this brave German Shepherd.

A point for being a brave boy trying to defend his tiny human from the ‘evil sprinkler,’ and another point for bringing laughter to his humans – the little and the adults – and the viewers as well.

People in the comments section absolutely loved the video!

Most of them were praises of this doggo’s brave and heroic act, although he had no idea it was just a harmless sprinkler.

People found it so adorable because he wanted to protect or even avenge his little toddler sibling.

The German Shepherd also gave pride to his breed.

Staying true to a German Shepherd’s characteristics, he showed a lot of confidence and courage in what he did.

Most German Shepherds are extremely loyal; hence, they are very protective of their pack and fight tooth and nail against those who harm their loved ones.

But German Shepherds are also big goofballs if they warm up to you.

They may be big and look intimidating, but they show their funny side to their closest family, giving them a dose of laughter and happiness.

This German Shepherd in the video showed all of that; for that, he deserves lots and lots of treats.
