LOL, I worked in two VW wrecking yards and was around the dogs. They wandered about the yards and hung out wherever during the day and basically acted like pets. All three were friendly. All were some kind of German Shepard mix. But when the sun went down and the gates were locked they all went into beast mode. No way could I try and get in there at night. That’s the funny thing about all dogs is they have their own trigger that I think is part of their DNA when it happens.I remember as a kid we would go to the local auto junk yards and true to the old saying the junk yard dogs were the meanest in that time period.
My pitty girl was the sweetest most obedient dog ever and was completely non aggressive. But one night just as I was turning in she wanted out in the backyard. I just said no and she went to get in bed, no argument. But I thought what if she got to do her biz? So I went over and opened the sliding glass door and she looked up at me and said ok. She shot off like a rocket with her chest a couple inches off the ground like an insane light speed crawl. She went behind the shed before I could even react and I heard this godawful screech and silence. I called her several times and there was nothing. Got my flashlight and she was pacing back and forth along the fence and came when she saw me. I expected to see her dead as we have mountain lions, Bob cats, raccoons etc locally. Checked her out and not a scratch. Next day I went behind the shed to get something and there’s a raccoon with its head on backward! It was around 25+lbs. She literally offed it in 3seconds. Needless to say I didn’t let her out at night anymore.
