Well done everybody

Exotic hair man looked something like this

Harry husband, Moss, and I are out walking on Sunday afternoon; there are lots of people around.  It’s that kind of afternoon.  Moss is going through a bit of a tricky phase.   It's the afternoon, and she's not yet been for her morning walk.

We walk down  a path that’s not all that wide.  Towards us comes a guy with an exotic hairdo.  He has three small dogs on leads, they look like Terriers or perhaps Chihuahua types.  There’s a complex energy coming from them - plus Moss has her own complex energy.

Currently she's not being easy with other dogs - we’ve got to work on that.

As we get closer I notice that he looks concerned, probably about the potential for complications.

A doggy ding dong perhaps.

We give each other space, which means that Harry husband, Moss and I  clamber into the verge amid brambles and bushes.  Exotic hair man is equally considerate. We are trying to give each other plenty of space, whilst also trying not to convey the rising tension down the lead to the dogs.

We are trying to be calm, knowing that dogs sense everything, particularly Collie types – and probably Terriers too.

We pass.

It’s okay.

As we pass, we overhear exotic hair man saying, Well done everybody!

Bless his heart, I think I know where he’s coming from.
