Strange Looks from Neighbors


During walks with Nyx, the Johnsons began noticing how people reacted differently. Neighbors would pause mid-step or give the dog puzzled stares. One day, Mrs. Brown asked with wide eyes, “What kind of dog is that?” Mr. Johnson responded, “A Cane Corso, we believe,” but his answer only seemed to deepen the confusion. The curiosity around Nyx grew more intense each time they left the house.

Some people even crossed the street to avoid walking past them, as if uneasy. One evening, Mr. Reynolds hesitantly commented, “That’s a…unique dog you’ve got there.” Although the Johnsons laughed it off, they couldn’t ignore the subtle tension and curiosity that Nyx seemed to trigger in everyone he passed. It planted a seed of doubt they couldn’t easily shake.
