Jepson the rescue dog has become a hero! One of the volunteers who walks pups at Big Fluffy Dog Rescue in Tennessee found herself in a potential kidnapping situation That's when the Great Pyrenees sprung into action.
Jean Harrison is the founder of the rescue. She told authorities that a van pulled up next to the volunteer who was walking the dog. A that moment, two men got out of the van and began to walk directly to the woman and the pup. “The dog started going berserk,” Harrison said, adding that the woman had to hold Jepson back as he tried to get to the men. Apparently that was all it took for the crooks to show their true colors. It scared them off and they got back into the van without saying a word and sped off.
The Big Fluffy Dog Rescue founder added: "Had she not been walking a Great Pyrenees who decided these men definitely constituted a threat and had that Great Pyrenees not kept them at bay, we could have been national news.”
“Jepson the Pyr is a hero for sure and the employee this happened to is a trooper," she said.
