Sweetie

[stoutfellow]

Sweetie, the rottweiler on the corner, has a new housemate; his people brought home a little pom a few days ago. We met him today, as I was walking Buster and Gracie. (They told me his name, but I can't remember it. Something like Koko, maybe?) He was very friendly, coming over for a sniff'n'wag and accepting a few strokes from me. (Wonderful fur, almost as good as Buster's.) Sweetie watched benignly from a distance. His silence may be accounted for by the thing like a large folded frisbee he had in his mouth, but his posture was relaxed; he didn't even react when I brought B&G onto the fringes of his yard.

Maybe having another dog in the house has persuaded him that it is, indeed, possible to be civil to other dogs.
