Wow, poor doggy. Someone had mentioned about stretching your arms out and that's your bubble? I think it depends on the person. (I had taken a nonviolent crisis intervetion training program required for work and was told that arms length isn't correct anymore. It is actually the length of your legs.) Which makes perfect sense for me because anyone who is within arms length of me and I don't know them or only know them a little isn't enough. I still feel they are invading my bubble. (I'm also a person who hates being in crowds.) You can imagine with going to the Mall in Anchorage or one of the fun resturants of Subway... doesn't do well for me.)

I'm surprised also that the dog didn't take a chunk of meat of. You know, I was reading that and I immediately brought me back to Diesel. (When my older sister gave me her truck to take both dogs to the vet for check up and shots.) I picked her up from her work and she immediatly, when she saw the obvisouly painful puppy trying to sleep and get warm, picked him up and did the same hold and put her face to his. (Although, he was more inpain and probably could only focus on that.) She didn't do the baby talk, but she did say you are a looker and this and that. I did tell her to becareful of his tail and right away, her expression changed to oh you poor thing. I'm soo sorry.

But that was just a quick 1 to 2 minute. (and the fact she was my older sister, I guess it doesn't really count.) I know she won't do that to any stranger's dog or puppy without asking first.

If I were that little dog, I'd first nip the womans nose and maybe even show my teeth to say "back off." (If any of you seen Family Guy, there is an episode where Brian is at the store and a child comes up to him and says good doggy and pets down on him hard as he moves to all four and Brian is actually speaking to the kid, to hard, to hard, to hard, please stop, please stop, i'm going to bite, i'm going to bite and boom he bites and the kid goes crying and he's steamed saying I warned you too many times or something like that.) It was a long time ago I used to watch that show.
