What a fun shot!! She has a name! I like it...we had a black lab in our neighborhood, named Pearl, who was one of Nutmeg's buddies for years. She was a sweetheart (maybe still is...but would be quite old for a dog now and I haven't seen her in months). I like how in this one you were able to create the sense of the two of them looking at one another, warily. Pearl is REALLY cute!!!
A wonderful image of new friendship. Cayenne will be ok as long as she says do up to Pearl, if she runs all is lost! Our cat stands up to any dog as she is used to them, she just looks disdainly from her perch on top of the cupboard,
