I was at a party on Sunday and enjoyed watching all the babies and toddlers coo and play, and the sweet little shih tzu prance around trying to be a part of the fun. Watching the little girl who I didn’t even know drive her toy car up my leg made me laugh… wow was she outgoing! Seeing her little sister who was probably only about 18 months old demand HER share of play time with the same toy … wow what spunk!
It was all fun until they started to leave. Before anyone could stop her, the toddler bent down to hug the doggie good bye and then, “WAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!” I guess Molly doesn’t like being hugged. She nipped at the little girl who melted into a puddle of tears and sobbing.
Thankfully she was okay, but it sure serves as a reminder that even the friendliest of dogs can bite out of the blue. Love your pets, but be careful when strangers are around them, too. Especially kids!
