Dogs on the loose

H(my neighbor) brought his two lethargic labs out for the walk. V was very amused to see them up close. I made him exercise his courage to his limit and made him pat them. After lots of demos of rubbing, cuddling and patting by his father, he was persuaded to touch them, then ride them and then even got licked a bit. He started to first pat him to test the reaction. Then would give a shriek as soon as the dog made some quick glance. Though knowing that I was around he got more confidence and started feeling the complete coat. After awhile, the dogs and V were comfortable with each other. V started exploring further with his petit fingers, rubbing from his ears to his lower neck. The dogs were adorable and mature to let him play. Much like the tigress who let the cubs do whatever they want.
