Who's Behind the Gate?
9.30.2012
On the walking route that Chloe and I frequently
use, there are several houses that border the sidewalk where the homeowners use the side yard for containing their dogs. Instinctively Chloe has learned where
these homes are, and implements caution as we approach the gates that contain the
barking dogs. Today, we came to one such gate as the rising sun casted its early morning glow, and where I was able to catch
Chloe’s reaction moments before we passed.
When she hears the dog barking on the other side, Chloe
returns the growl but quickens her pace until we are safely by. Judging
by the deep throated sound that came from the opposite side, the
dog is probably much older and larger then Chloe. Next time, I’ll try to look
over the wall and snap a picture to see if my guess is correct.
