Thought I'd explain this before anyone gets upset reading about his corgi friend on my bonding post without all the info [emoji4]
The building I live in has a big grassy area out front that when it was warmer I would take Zeus to. My friend who also lives in the building has a corgi who they take on the grass as well. The corgi is a sweetie! Also a neutered boy [emoji39]
So it happened the one day I was out with Zeus and my friend came out, dog was on a leash and so was Zeus. My friend cautiously came over to say hi. The dog wasn't very fussed with Zeus and Zeus wasn't very fussed. We were about 2m from each other and they had seen each other and sniffed in the direction. This happened a few different times until the one day Zeus actually went bounding over to the dog, they didn't really bother much other than a bit of sniffing and the dog licking Zeus's ear. Obviously we kept a super close eye and let Zeus do all the going closer or not.
Skip forward to my friend coming by mine with the dog on her way out, she kept the dog on his leash and by her side but Zeus went right over to the dog and groomed him a bit then did his loaf head lowered position asking for rubs(he does this to me) and he started his happy teeth grinding when the dog licked his head. My friend has been over once or twice more and Zeus always goes up to the dog asking for grooming and then after a bit going off to one of his sploof spots.
So haven't forced it on him and this all happened over just more than a month time period. Sadly only have one photo as we always keep our hands free and ready to step in if either shows any unhappy body language
