the stupidest squirrel in the world

            lulu had alerted us to the potential threat in the backyard, the baby squirrel that was clearly plotting to disembowel us and then steal the small stash of nuts in our cupboard.  despite her enthusiasm, we managed to keep lulu away from the little guy most of the day, as he seemed a little slow and new to climbing.  

however, lulu later spotted him clinging to a tree just a few feet off the ground.  i pulled lulu away by the scruff, and the squirrel followed.  he hopped off the tree and jumped straight toward lulu.  i dragged lulu to the corner of the yard as she divided the squirrel into different portions in her mind, and the squirrel turned and chased after us.  

it eventually ended without incident, but i don't understand it.  is it possible the squirrle thought lulu was his mother?
