what happens when you feed a labweiller to an 8 month old baby?

So, Targhee's a BIG dog. She weighs just under 100 pounds and has a bark that will scare away any meter man who considers entering our yard. What that meter man doesn't realize is that the big black thing that's barking at him is shaking and has just peed herself out of fright.
She's scared of the vacuum, even when it's not turned on.
We know she's a wuss. We know she's a mama's girl. So, this next bit really shouldn't have surprised us. But it did. Years from now, we'll still be laughing about it.

 Targhee, meet Ezra (my cousin Courtney's 8 month old daughter)

Obviously, Ezra was not afraid of Targhee, but when the dog woke up to Ez in her face, she took one look at her and came to me for protection.

A few days later, they were introduced again. The meeting seemed to be going well. Targhee even leaned forward to sniff Ezra's hands.  

Then, Ez got excited and may have squealed just a little bit. Targhee's looking for an escape.

 She came to hide next to mom for protection.

Uncle Kelan thought it was funny, so he brought Ezra closer. She's not in the picture, but Targhee's eyeing her.

 If you look in the far right of the picture, you can see Ez's fingers holding a plastic spoon. Targhee had to get away, so she decided to climb ON the table.

 Yeah, we were playing a card game until the moose-dog decided to crash.

 Ezra's pretty happy just standing there, but Targhee won't have anything to do with her! "Mama, save me!!"

 Cowering Targhee.

Targhee thought she'd be safe up on the table, but Ezra's pretty crafty at getting where she wants to go!

Oh, dear. Do dogs ever get embarrassed? They should. The baby totally won this battle. Go, team Ezra!!
