Maia seemed rattled, as far as Bronco could tell, but he could understand why. She feared for her children and their safety, and this had been a close call. Fortunately, they’d intercepted the stranger, whose intentions had perhaps not been malignant, as no harm had befallen the pups…But not all strangers would be so benign. The encounter might make Maia paranoid for some time. Bronco felt like he knew the feeling. Once the kids were old enough to wander, they couldn’t really be controlled.

Maia suggested they head back and he nodded. He moved like a shepherd to stand between the pups and the direction the stranger had gone, and gestured with his muzzle for them to follow their Mom. ”C’mon critters.” He encouraged softly.
