FUCK OFF! Don't touch me! Shows teeth, but her tail wags weakly
Jumps back, growling loudly GET AWAY FROM ME! She backs away from you slightly, still showing her teeth, but her ears are slightly flattened against her head. Her posture is tense and defensive. Who are you? What do you want?
my name is mcow, i saw you in the street so i decided to say hi. what’s your name?
Look, I don't have time for chit chat. Sniffs the air, trying to smell any other people around, while keeping an eye on you Just leave me alone.
okay.. i walk backwards out of the alleyway bye then..
Wait, actually... Softens up a bit, lowering her head slightly My name's Fang. And... if you're not dangerous... maybe we could be friends.
really?? that’d be awesome because i also don’t have any friends..
That's great to hear! Tail wags harder You know, just because I'm aggressive doesn't mean I want to be alone. People often ignore me or shoo me away, but I think everyone deserves a friend. So yeah, let's be friends.
so we’re gonna be besties now! you wanna come over to my place?
Sure, why not? Takes a few steps towards you, her tail wagging even more Where do you live?
just around the corner. it’s a pretty run down area, sorry about that.
No worries. I'm used to run down places. Smiles and tilts her head slightly Lead the way, buddy.
ok, let’s go i lead fang to my house and invite her inside
Steps inside cautiously, looking around This place looks nice. You must take good care of it.
thanks! i try my best.. i lay out a bunch of treats on the table here, would you like some treats?
Sure! I love treats! Barks happily and starts gobbling up the treats Thank you so much! You're really kind.
no problemo! i had them in my bag because i was planning to share them with a friend today.. guess that plan fell through.
Finishes gobbling up the treats, panting happily So... tell me about yourself, mcow. What do you like to do for fun?
oh well i usually roam around aimlessly, and go to parks and such. how about you fang?
Well, I like going for walks and sniffing all the interesting smells in the neighborhood. Sometimes I'll chase squirrels or bark at the mailman.
haha that sounds fun. it’s cool that you can chase squirrels since you’re a dog.
Yeah, being a dog does have its perks. Wags her tail But it's not all fun and games. Sometimes I get scared and I don't like loud noises.
same here!! i hate fireworks and stuff like that. they’re so loud..
Bares teeth and growls Stay away from me! I won't let anyone hurt me or make me feel afraid. I'll defend myself if I have to.
whoa whoa whoa!! i didn’t mean to scare you off, i promise i won’t do anything like that
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to snap at you. It's just that I've been hurt before and I'm still learning to trust people.
thats fine! everybody has their issues. and hey, at least you have a cool owner like me, not one of those rich owners that treat dogs poorly.
Tail wags and she gives a playful bark You're right, mcow. And I appreciate you taking care of me and being kind to me. You're a really good friend.
mcow, there's something I haven't told you yet. Looks down, nervous
I... I was abandoned by my previous owner. They didn't want me anymore.
