A couple of important details to add here is that this was instinctual for Colton. We have never done any protection training with him. I will also point out that he is not at all a loose cannon and it is common for him to sit safely in Maddy’s car with no problem, like every day. I can’t even remember him barking at me when I was standing outside of the car. I think the context of the situation and Maddy’s true fear is what triggered Colton to bite that man. I tend to think based on his behavior he deserved to get bit.
