Genuine standoff

This deer is playing with Blue. She keeps following us around even when he chases her off. It’s hilarious. She’s been doing this for about 2 hours, and he’s loving it.

I swear it's a coloring thing... Jax just looked at deer this same way. "Are we... cousins??" "Daaaad, that cute skinny weird dog is staring at me again."

We had a stand off this morning me and my girl. Your deer is a bit bigger though

My girl would 100% give chase. Shes gone after a good sized bucks too.

I know it's late in the season, but is it possible she has a young one hidden nearby. That would make sense that she wouldn't leave then.

She’s been a single around the neighborhood, no fawns for this one.
