Neighbors of ours have 3 Rhodesian Ridgebacks - they go jogging with them. I walked out the front door this morning with Star, and there they were in the neighbor's driveway. They are huge! Star screeched to a halt, then decided she wanted to go over and check things out.
Huh? This is the puppy who is intimidated by the German Shepherd, Boxer, and Golden Doodles in puppy kindergarten. Turns out that the oldest of the RRs, Maggie, is the gentlest soul ever. She is quite large and a little overweight - her running days are over - but she nuzzled up to Star like she was with a little pup of her own. So sweet - and what a great "big dog" experience for Star.
Oh, I should say, after all the recent posts. All 3 RRs were on leashes! I wish I had a picture of this encounter. Star was about the size of their heads...
