Info from Licensor: "Meira is notorious for being cautious around new things and having a BIG attitude. We had recently posted a video about things she did not like as a small puppy and someone suggested we try the talking cactus! This video took place immediately after getting the cactus out of the box. She is very curious about it and cannot decide if it is a friend or foe. It is important to note that her tail is up and wagging and she is still going towards the cactus, meaning this is not a video of her being 'scared' necessarily! When she is scared her whole body goes stiff, she tucks her tail between her legs, and she does not move so this is a very different response. Actually, it is exactly how she responds to cats as well, like she wants to play but she is kind of nervous about their unpredictability and the unknown!"
