"A man with five guns and more than 6,000 rounds of ammunition set himself up beside a water plant yesterday planning to commit mass homicide. But a dog's affection apparently persuaded him not to go through with his plan.

The man had several rifles and telescopic lenses, a camouflage balaclava, as well as a .357 magnum and a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol, a machete and other knives.

He had loaded his pistols and was readying the rifles, police said. They were in his car's trunk along with the ammunition; he had removed the safeties and trigger locks.

He changed his mind when a dog on a walk in the park would not leave him alone.

"He happens to be a pet lover, and he decided that if there was such a nice dog in the area the people were too nice and he wasn't going to carry out his plan," Det. Ashley said.

Det. Ashley said he had never seen anything like this, nor had he ever seen such a large cache of ammunition."

1. Reminds me of a story I saw on America's Most wanted

A woman was attacked and left for dead in the woods. She was awakened by a stray dog who urged her to get up and follow him to safety. She adopted the dog and named him (guardian) Angel! Maybe it's the same dog, LOL!

2. Yes its the same remakable sense of not only sensing danger

but also bestowing comfort. Both dogs sensed that the humans had reached the ends of their respective ropes and responded to that need.

It also makes me think about the importance of random acts of kindness whether by human or animal.
