I was thinking the same thing. Tracy, keep Igloo happy. Perhaps he is conspiring with those drivers. Just saying...

Hey, Tracy, does someone have it in for you, or what!! 😁 Good thing Igloo's a good boy and definitely on top of things! I know when that happened to me in close proximity like that, it starts to make you a little nervous for a bit.
Best,
Charlene

We got another traffic check yesterday. My husband and I decided to go out to lunch. We were crossing a busy intersection with the light, and some idiot gunned his engine and went flying in front of us. Igloo slammed on the brakes. Good boy!
2 traffic checks in 2 days. I feel like I'm back in class, except the drivers around here aren't as tuned in to their surroundings as the trainers in class. But I have no doubts now that Igloo is still sharp with traffic.
I was astonished to learn, when I was researching the white cane law in New Jersey, that it's illegal for a driver to enter a crosswalk if a blind person is crossing. I'm sure that very few drivers know that.
Tracy
