RE: My First Alive Post & City at Night

Thank you very much, @nainaztengra!
And you know what!?! - If you would have a chance to meet her (my dog) in person, I'm sure you would love her and become best friends despite her size.
A friend of mine who hates dogs of any kind (I don't know why, as I don't think it's only fear in question) was unrecognizable after a couple of hours in her presence.

The thing was, that my friend and I should meet for a coffee and a portion of chat. I brought my Bella (that's my dog's name) although I knew I'm risking she might turn around and go home. But, on the other hand, as we didn't meet for a long time there is also a big chance my friend would like to stay somehow trying to overcome her dog aversion.

However, although my friend started grumbling at first, in the end, we set at the terrace of the coffee shop, and my Bella lay down close to my chair, remaining calm and silent for the following more than two hours. Then, over a sudden, my friend asked me what do I think she (the dog) might do if she tries to pet her. So, I told Bella to stand up and thought my friend how to start approaching her.

The whole story ended up that at parting time, my friend was not only petting her but even playing and hugging her, constantly repeating, "I don't believe this! I can't recognize myself!" Then she even asked me to take a picture of two of them which I did. My friend said, "Now, I'm going to post this photo on my FB profile page! Nobody is going to believe that's actually me! They all know how I am when dogs are in question!"

All in all, Bella is really a special dog with healing abilities. She is very calm, very friendly, very playful, and she rarely barks. She just doesn't like drunks and drug addicts, and she would bark on them, as well as on those that might not have so good intentions. Then she would be protective. About two weeks ago, I had an incident when some men tried to approach me on the street in a strange way. I didn't even notice him at first as he was approaching me from the back, but Bella did, and then she started to bark very strongly and was protective, so the man pulled back and after a short while when he realized that she is serious, walked away.

In contrary to this unusual and awkward situation with that strange man on the street, she is a very good friend with our postman and adored by whole tenants of our building. 😊
