Ah Denyce, it is nice to hear that Sequoia has a friend she can really play with. I remember how happy you were that she did so well at the ice cream social. Maybe you can set up a time when Maya and Sequoia can meet at the park when no other dogs are there (around here if I have a dog I am not sure of I take him/her to the park between 9:15 and 10:00 on a Sunday morning, there usually isn't anyone there). And take a camera with you.
