Usually, we don't encounter any dogs on our morning walk, but today we saw 3! That is a lot for Mocha, who is still a little worried when she sees other dogs.
First we saw the dog who had been wearing the puffy neck collar. Now it is no longer wearing it, but I don't know that dog's name, so that's how I identify it. Mocha was calm when she saw that dog. She just looked at it a couple times, and kept walking with me.
Next, before we had even gotten very far from that dog, Max the Schnauzer was coming down the street. Max and his mom crossed to the other side of the street before we had seen them. Mocha looked at him a couple times, but didn't get agitated.
The third dog we saw was Pookie. Same coloring as Mocha in a smaller package. Pookie also gets agitated with other dogs, so that is not a good combination with Mocha. Pookie started barking at her, and she got her fur up and pulled toward Pookie. They kept walking, and I waited for Mocha to calm down before we kept going.
Anyway, 2 out of 3 good reactions is not bad for Mocha J!
