Would Your Dog Save You From a Violent Home Invader? Putting Pups to the Test

If a masked intruder broke into your home, would your dog attack or tuck its tail and run away?

Inside Edition put some dogs to the test to find out whether they would confront the burglar, or wimp out.

In a recent case, a robber kicked down the door of a home with two dogs — but instead of teaming up to take him down, the canines took off.

In a home outside Philadelphia, one dog ran away as a burglar hurled a plate at it.

Inside Edition tested Perry, a 5-year-old yellow Labrador, at her home in Irvington, N.Y.

Her owner, Michelle Kellaher, loves her dog but wonders if Perry would go the extra mile to save her.

"I hope she tries to protect me," Kellaher told Inside Edition.

To find out, Inside Edition enlisted the help of Nate Bonilla and Michael D’Abruzzo of K9-1 Specialized Dog Training.
