Conflict and resolution

It gets a little crazy on the beach.  We have lots of dogs, lots of people, lots of traffic, and well, lots of time to play. Samson loves to play. He will share his beach, his deck, and his water. But ... Samson is VERY protective of his toys.

In this exchange, Bella approaches slowly.

Bella walks up, Samson eyeing her warily.

We should take a lesson from this.  Cheers from the beach!
