The Incident In The Park...

Hi there.
Oh dear, something happened in the park yesterday that has never happened before...

I was going for my first walk of the day to my local park with one of my humans and her friend. I was on my best behaviour and was running after the ball the human threw for me and bringing it back I normally do but then I smelt the perfume of something in the air- another dog. As I looked over, I saw a white-and-gold coated puppy trotting along on the other side of the park. I don't know what made me do it but I dropped my ball and started to walk along, then jog along and then sprint along to where this puppy was... And she started sprinting off! Obviously, I thought she wanted to play so I started chasing her across the football pitch but then I noticed something was wrong; my human was shouting my name with a stern tone to it and that always mean something's up. I glanced back at her and stopped running- what was I doing?! I never like it when bigger dogs try and play with me when I don't want to and now I realised that I was the bigger dog and the puppy didn't want to join in with my fun! I quickly ran back to my human, picking up my tennis ball along the way. I felt really bad as I never meant to be mean; I just wanted to have a game. Thinking back now, that puppy was probably too young to realise I was playing so was probably running off in panic... The puppy's owner scooped her up and brought her over to where I was sitting so I could apologise and she gave me a good old sniff- I'm sorry little dude!

I'm going to buy some treats for her and post them through the door as I feel so guilty now. I've never done that before and I know for sure I won't be repeating that act...
Talk soon, Jasper x
