A little boy named Jeremy was riding a bike calmly around his driveway when suddenly the neighbor’s Labrador-Chow puppy came into the yard and attacked his leg, pulling him to the ground and shaking him violently.

The Triantafilo family posted an amazing video on YouTube from surveillance cameras that showed the family’s cat, Tara, charging at the dog in mid-attack, and running it off their property.
