My person usually wont’ let me near any other dogs when we meet up with them on the trail. As a matter of fact she won’t let me near any people either unless they come up to me. She holds my collar tight and pulls me off to the side of the trail. I can’t figure out why. I’ve only been mean to a few dogs. If my person only knew what those dogs were thinking she wouldn’t mind that I was mean to them.
I do have some friend dogs though and sometimes we meet up on the trail. A few days ago I saw my friend Maple who used to live on my street, but my best friend dog is Timmy. Timmy lives across the street from me and we greet each other when we get together on the trail. Timmy doesn’t like to walk as far as I do though and he’ll start heading for home when I’m just getting going.
Timmy and I have something in common – besides being dogs, that is. We both live with black cats. Timmy’s black cat is Bubba. Bubba comes over to my yard sometimes but I have to chase him back to Timmy. One black cat is all I can handle.

We are glad you have a good friend Bongo. But don’t hurt that kitty that you are chasing. Besides Black kitties are really nice kitties but he does need to be taught to stay home.Have a great day.

Marg, the kitty is fun to chase but I’d never hurt him. I’m really a softie inside.

My person makes me practice ignoring other dogs when we’re out walking. I’m not supposed to bark at them, but if they start in on me, I bark back. Like you say… if she only knew what they said to me first! When I’m off leash at the park or the beach, then I get to greet other dogs and play with them if I want. But on leash… it’s all work.

Lola, I’m not very good at ignoring other dogs and sometimes they’re off leash and come up to me. I’ve never hurt one but my person says sometimes I’m not very nice.

Oh cool to meet your friends! I have a black cat too. AND I have a cat named Bubba. But my Bubba is not a black cat.

Rumpy, so cool that we have our cats in common. Too bad you can’t come hang out with me and Timmy.

Bassa, Timmy is a very nice dog, but he doesn’t play much. He’s pretty old and doesn’t have much get up and go left in him.
