New Animals

I like meeting new animals. They end up liking me. Here's how one encounter went recently:

Dog: BARK BARK BARK GROWL.

Me: Hmmm...

Dog: *Sniff sniff sniff*

Me: Yep. Check me for threats. I'm good.

Dog: *licks hand*

Me: *starts petting*

Dog: *looks up, tail wags, loves it*

If only socializing with people was as easy.
