Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature / W Bruce Cameron novel, A
English term or phrase: charging up
в самом последнем абзаце.

We were all in the dog park as usual. Duke and Sally were over sniffing a big white dog whose name was “Bring Me The Ball Tony”. Bring Me The Ball Tony was more interested in trying to climb on Sally’s back than in paying attention to his owner. I was trying to engage a male dog my size who looked very much like my mother, with the same face and coloring, and I finally managed to persuade him to give chase, so naturally Beevis came running up, growling, his lips back and his ears stiff. My playmate was instantly cowed and shrank away from the aggression, but I turned and snapped at Beevis to let him know he was pushing me too far. Instead of backing away, Beevis came straight at me.
I heard CJ yelling “No!” but Beevis went up on his rear legs and I followed and his teeth slashed at me, trying to wound me. I bit back and caught a fold of skin in my mouth and then my girl was there, using her legs to push us apart.
“No!” she yelled again. She scooped me up and I kept snarling and snapping as Beevis tried to reach me. CJ turned, using her body to block him. “Stop it, Beevis! No, Max, no!”
Then Duke came charging up, reacting to the distress in CJ’s voice. He clearly didn’t understand what was going on, but his appearance made Beevis back off.

подскочил победоносно


Explanation:
"Charge!" - это команда перейти в наступление. Charging up - наступая, готовый к бою или победоносно. Кроме того, пёс-агрессор в результате отступил.
