Excitement - Loose Dog

Yesterday, Mocha & I took a walk with my friend Holly.  On our way back home, I noticed that a neighbor's dog (let's call him Max) was loose outside.  There was also a runner coming down the street.  So 3 things for Max to focus on - the runner, Mocha, and being alone outside!  

First he barked at and chased the runner for a few steps.  The he started crossing the street to bark at Mocha from a closer position.  I was trying to get Mocha to keep walking, and to ignore Max.  She did pretty well.  Meanwhile, Max's mom came out and started calling him.  It took him a while for him to pay attention to her, but he finally did.

Holly gave  Mocha a treat after she had settled down and we had walked up to the next corner.  She will be a good dog mom one day!
