Dog Distractions

The other day, Mason and I were walking across campus, on our way back from the dining hall, when we got an unexpected surprise. At first, everything was going normally. Then, a woman walked by with her dog. Some staff members, I forget their actuual titles, have to live in the dorms. They're not R.A.s but the people above them. Anyway, since they have to live there, they are allowed to have their pets. Therefore, a couple of small dogs reside on our campus. Anyway, one of these people walked by with her dog feeling pretty secure in her arms. The first clue I got that a dog was there was when he decided to lunge at Mason. Surprisingly, he didn't react. In training, he was easily distracted by other dogs, and that's an issue we've still been working on. Therefore, you can imagine how pleased I was when he completely ignored this one. It's nice to know that even when some people don't control their animals, yours can be depended on to behave.
