\u201cShe started barking and ran into the kitchen and I could tell by the way she was growling something wasn’t right,\u201d Leachman told WAVE.<\/p>\n

A man was standing in her kitchen. Leachman ran for the door and the man ran after her, knocking her to the floor.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe whole time Layla was barking and biting his legs and going crazy, and I was kicking and screaming,\u201d Leachman said.<\/p>\n

Leachman was able to push the intruder away as Layla bit him. The man ran outside, and Leachman locked the door and called police.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
