The shiba inu paw-rents took so long in planning Mya and Samu's "playdate". About a year in the making? But like what usually happens when it comes to human adults organizing coffee-dates or let's-catch-up-dates, this one happened when it was quite unplanned.
What was unexpected too, was the aloofness of both parties toward each other. At least, that was how it was relayed to me. Rear-sniffing here and there, some circling, and that was it. I was probably being silly, half-expecting a reaction like those in the cartoons when they would see another one of their species for the first time.
Getting a good sniff... a real good sniff!
But for now, it's good...no scream...no growl... Let's see what happens tomorrow. Mya has been kind of the "life of the party", always taunting other dogs to play, while from an outsider's point of view, Samu is of the reserved character, at least in the beginning. Like a traditional dignified Japanese man. Then Mya would be a... geisha? Let's see if this girl can bring out the playfulness in the serious pal.
