No Hats


Emme doesn't like men in hats. We noticed this last weekend at the reunion. During the day, she would be perfectly fine around various men. Then they would put on a ball cap to go out on a boat ride and Emme would bark furiously at them. It was like she never saw them before, even though she had spent hours around them. We noticed the behavior and experimented: hat on, Emme barked. Hat off, she stopped. How odd.
Today Ken was mowing the lawn. He put on a straw hat to keep the sun off his head. I walked Emme around to the front yard on the leash to talk to Ken. As soon as she saw him, wearing a hat, she began barking. He took off the hat and she stopped. She just doesn't like men in hats.
