My Bonsai Protector

This started some time ago on a different thread, but it quickly petered out. I thought I'd post a picture of mine, and I'd like to see yours. Dog? cat? Other? Who protects your bonsai when you're not watching? Here's my Bonsai Bully - Murray.
Best Wishes,
Paul

I have a little troll that keeps an eye on things. Not much to look at and not too mannerly but he does a good job ;o)

I deploy a crack unit for the security and safety of the entire property. Not just for the bonsai, Lord knows, no one would steal them anyhow....people just aren't into bonsai round these parts.

This squad has been around for years. Have unique individual skills. Bruno has actually been discharged with honors, a new recruit (not pictured), a pompoo named Marley has enlisted, but He is still in boot camp.

This is my protector as well as my bonsai protector. He is a Maremma and his natural instinct is as a Guardian. He Guards me and hates any strangers. Don't let that beautiful white face put you off guard. He is quite hostile to strangers. 45kg of speed and grunt. Although he is a big softy with me.

Here is my Smokey. Born in Hungary. Living the American dream. Since there is no sheep to herd, he has to make do with my bonsai.
