A chihuahua, to be precise.
At work last night, I helped a very nice lady take some things to her car. She had three bags, plus a piece of boxed furniture. Since it was spitting rain and she was, er, over-fifty years old, I took two of her bags out so she could unlock the car. As we walked out, she warned me she had a chihuahua in the car, and that he barked at everyone, so I should prepare myself.
Customer unlocks the front door and puts her bag in. Little bundle of chihuahua-energy is in the front seat, wiggling and sniffing and...not barking. He was adorable, so I cooed and awed a bit while Customer put the bags on the floor. I went back inside to fetch the furniture box and loaded it into the backseat, with nary a bark from the pup.
Customer's comment went something like this: He must have picked up on your personality, because he always barks at people!
It made me smile.

Aw how cute! I do believe that dogs can sense the type of people we are. Mine is a chihuahua/jack russel mix (very calm really) and goes crazy barking at this one kid that lives a few houses down. I found out from another neighbor he's a bit of a hoodlum and curses all the time (he's like, 10). So ya, go you with the good soul!
I suppose this also explains why my dad's dog runs me down every time I come over. *g*
My dog is a terrible judge of character. She'll go up to the creepiest dude at the park. I'm, like, can't you SMELL that he's probably carrying a knife, not a Milkbone? Egads.
Great quotes on your book BTW. Congrats!
My sister had a lab who had no judgment whatsoever. Silly thing would make friends with anyone.
