Evidenced by the way the stranger replied, Dingo concluded that he wasn't after Towhee in the sense that had been implied, but he was drawing too close all the same. He didn't want this young and attractive wolf to feel welcome, that would change the composition of the pack if the guy did linger, and Dingo wanted all the ladies to himself. That and, he didn't want there to be big, strong, strapping young men around to prevent his eventual claim of Fennec as she got older.

The man watched for a moment to ascertain the stranger's intentions.
