Making Friends

This is Davey.


We took a walk the other day and met a man called "Keith" who walked with a bit of a pimp limp though severe enough, I think he may have been capped in the knee in his youth - some day, I shall find out what really happened. Davey has a bad habit of barking at strangers which I am desperately trying to mitigate. Keith was really patient with Davey and after he stopped barking we wound up walking a short distance down the street together, which helped Davey realize that human beings are cool. Keith walks his beautiful little girl to the bus stop every morning. As a training technique, he invited us to swing by the bus stop regularly for Davey to get accustomed to seeing new people.
