On a walk yesterday Whisper got quite close to another dog (that she has met before) face to face. I thought we'd got too close as she froze and stared, so I was expecting a fit of barking and lunging.
But we got a delightful suprise when she did a lovely play bow, the other dog bowed back and the had a wonderful minute of puppy like play.
I was very proud of her good manners for once.

Nice! Builds up the trust in your dog, doesn't it?

Aww this is cute to know. This means they are friendly, and it means they will be nice to one another after the bow.
