D.O.P.-T.

Yesterday on walkies we again ran into the dog's "boyfriend". She has a mad crush on that dog but it's not reciprocated, mainly because after dragging me towards him, whining piteously, she literally hurls herself at him, beating him about the head with her paws. Sometimes I can get her to be marginally more sedate, and the dog's owner is a nice young man who deftly untangles the leashes and pats our dog on the head, but yesterday she first tried to throw herself in front of traffic when she saw them approaching on the other crosswalk, then her ardour even startled a human couple who happened to be walking past the park.
