Love this. Very atmospheric. If I came across these two I'd be very trusting and would probably die, the dog would get the first bite cause I love dogs and my first instinct wouldn't be to kick the dog away. I think I would just think they are odd for having red eyes, it's hard to say really, they probably can't fully mask their nature and I might be suspicious.
This inspires my imagination to run wild and that is one of my favorite things when rating pieces.
