This would be frightening...but look closely...where are the teeth? It is hard to snarl when you are a retriever and your mouth is flobby. Barking is all you can manage.

I'd be quite mad about the eye too if I'd just uh, dumped a bone. Especially one that size.
meggie, Porridge is unusual as a retriever inasmuch as she barks...a lot...when excited. And she is very bouncy, rather like a bowling ball if you are out walking with her, as Lucy has discovered to her cost!(struck but still standing) Mrs G...you are right, we are not talking about a scary dog in the conventional toothy sense...more in the run for cover sense, if she is heading in your direction for a strike.
I am an ex-Londoner living in rural Brittany, France, for the last 18 years, with my family and far too many animals and wood stoves: these ramblings, some of which are cross, are about life in the countryside, and how to cope when your high heels are replaced by clogs.
