Atlas and Carlota, 1st atempt

Joel and Carlota going for their walk

Attempts for canine bonding

Atlas at home
Angela and Jorge, Atlas' parents, very kindly invited us to go to their place on Saturday, late afternoon. They not only invited us humans, as well as Carlota to meet Atlas. Joel and Alice got into planning on how to obtain the best result out of this meeting and it was a general consensus, that I should not be present, so that "adorable" Carlota would not "protect" me and therefore spoil the whole canine friendship.

Angela and I decided the meeting would start on the waterfront near their place, in other words, neutral territory and then, together we would walk to their place. Joel and I got there a bit earlier and when we saw them coming, I hid myself behind a something, may be an old coconut shack, don't know. Joel took Carlota for a walk and eventually Angela, Jorge and Atlas joined them.

Atlas, a gorgeous big healthy and very bubbly 1.5 year old boxer, wanted to go and play with Carlota immediately and by playing he meant a lot of "canine hugs". Carlota, being Carlota, decided to ignore him and succeeded almost entirely, except for 2 or 3 attempts in jumping back at him, one of them reaching for his ear.

Ok, it wasn't exactly what we had hoped for, but there is still hope that it will work, let's see... we will up date you!
