Hmmm. Anderson seems to have sacrificed plausibility for the sake of panel composition. Given their positions relative to the corner and the respective speeds of toddlers vs. puppies, Sophie will clear the intersection long before Doug and no collision will occur.
If Sophie intends to turn the corner rather than go straight through it’ll be closer, but conservation of angular momentum suggests she’ll bank wide and still miss him. I’ve SEEN lab puppies try to turn sharply, and it doesn’t work so well.
look how cute sophie is. and poor little Doug and no clue what is heading his way. hope she misses him, if not she will be in trouble for running in the house. lol
