In Georgia last month, a pack of around 11 coyotes attempted to attack a herd of sheep, watched over by one Casper, a 20-month old Great Pyrenees. After half an hour of canine-on-canine combat, what remained in the field was a piece of Casper's tail, some of his torn-off skin, a good deal of his blood... and eight dead coyotes (killed in what appeared to be a running battle - three were still in the sheep pen, two were just outside it, two were beside some nearby tracks, and the last was found in a nearby creek while they were trying to find Capser, who didn't return after the attack). Casper was found in the chicken coop after two days, significantly worse-for-wear, but fortunately donations were able to cover his $15,000 (!) in medical bills, and he's now well on the mend. You can read about it here.

This is what happens when you let your player take their character's pet dog as a full Ally based on 25% of their points, rather than just using the Pet perk.
