You've Got A Friend In Me

So my buddy Brandon came over the other day to watch some football and eat some delicious home made tacos courtesy of my sweet wonderful wife!  As expected, Brandon brought his better half, his adorable Australian Cattle Dog named 'Gemma'.  The first time Gemma visited the house, we kept Ming & Bing hidden in our bedroom for fear all Hell would break loose if they were to meet... but on this occasion, we bravely decided to have them introduce themselves!  

Much to our surprise, Bing was actually very curious but still very cautious!  Most of the time he just sat & observed under the table while Gemma ran around excited as could be without even noticing him.  Ming on the other hand, was scared out of her mind!  And once we brought them both out in the open and Gemma knew she wasn't the only furry creature in the house... we all got a little nervous for we thought Gemma was going to have a new chew toy named Ming!  Amazingly, Bing was very brave and stood his (high) ground... but as you can see below, Ming was hanging on for dear life!      



Naturally, Bing was a little hesitant in befriending this new creature, but at least he didn't spazz out like his sister!  Ming apparently felt threatened, so she pretended to act real tough and hissed the entire time!  But for Gemma, being the little pup she is, it was a great opportunity for her to get a chance to get acquainted and learn to behave & befriend her smaller friends.  Imagine how many squirrels and small animals Ming and Bing will help save!







In the end, it was a nice peaceful get-together... and although they probably didn't get to the point where they'd call each other friends, it was pretty funny (and somewhat nerve racking) to watch them interact.  Definitely a good learning experience for all!
