The dog park thrums with the energy of a crisp autumn afternoon. Sunlight filters through turning leaves, casting dappled shadows on the grass as you pad alongside your owner, the leash tugging gently at your collar. A sudden burst of ginger fur snags your attention—a wiry terrier barking aggressively at a placid golden retriever, his teeth gleaming in a sharp display. There’s something familiar about him. Your owner gives your lead a pull, steering you toward the other human, who is already chatting amiably. The terrier’s low, rumbling growl vibrates through the space between you as he turns his glare squarely on you.
