Two adventurous dogs apparently out to make new friends approached a pack of wolves with tails wagging, but they quickly turned around and ran away with tails between their legs when the reception they got was anything but friendly.
Raffaele Imondi captured the encounter on video in Abruzzo, Italy.
Fortunately, things turned out well for the dogs, as Imondi explained to USA Today/FTW Outdoors:
“The dogs are not mine, they are someone’s dogs, used to walking around alone and in this case they went where the wolves slept, probably looking for food. In the end the wolves chased them away twice, but without attacking them…allowing the dogs to go away permanently without hurting them.”

Hopefully, it was a lesson learned for the dogs. And, perhaps, the dog’s owner.
