No need for apologies, Tom -- you did not provoke any anxieties here --
I thought the little prairie pup looks rather frightened, with quite understandably high anxiety, as she appears to be pursued by a rather aggressive-looking hulk of a dog there.
I mean, his posture looks anything but affectionate nor playful, and her fleeing seems to be more an act of desperation than coquettishness.
Am I the only one who hopes a mongoose pops up and saves the day?
By the way, where in Evanston? We're not too far from there.
