Sophie met two Springer Spaniels at the Park the other day.
I always find how dogs 'greet and meet' very interesting.
First their focus is scent. I believe they have strong scent memory.
Once the 'investigation' is complete, they 'store' what they found.
And usually discover that there was no threat here.
They begin to disperse and head back towards their humans
to continue the walk.
