Morningside Cuesta Romeo & Juliet

Howl was looking down when Grayday made his move to muzzle grab Howl. At the sound of rushed movement Howl looked up and saw Grayday rushing towards him. At first Howl took a defensive stance, not one of affence but defence orientated. If he was going to be attacked he wanted to be able to defend himself. But as he saw where Graydays aim was he allowed him to grab his muzzle and he relaxed his stance. He lowered himself and tucked his ears back and lowered his tail. Howl was on Grayday's territory and exibiting dominance now would be seen as an attack on him and all within the territory. Howl saw no need to be agressive at this time unless his life was at risk. So he stayed in this stance waiting to see what would happen next.
