Its a Dogs Life

(Sorry I took so long to post!)


Shiloh glared at the pup. "You ruined it! I was about to catch that wabbit and then you pushed me!" He barked, trying to blame the other pup for the rabbit being faster than he was. "I'm Shiwoh. I'm a beagle!" He turned his back to the pup and sat down, but then looked at his surroundings and started to whimper. "Where are we? Its dark... and scary..." He trailed off and lay down, shutting his eyes so the dark would go away, but it didn't. His tail went between his legs, and he whimpered some more.
 
Rose could tell she was getting closer to the puppies and let out a loud bark. Gwyn and Matt would come looking for them soon and they hated doing that.
 
"No." Prinny replied, before pawing through the 'bedding' so she could hide under it. "Nothing at all." Letting out a small sigh, she scratched at her collar for a moment a bit awkwardly.
 
"No, I'll be okay," reassured Kota now a few feet away, ears flicking back and forth as she could hear their conversation and resented the idea of needing assistance.


"If you say so," whined Phoenix, taking the lead of Rose as she remained stationary and in thought. Heeding to the fact that their was no official leader, since he had not been informed of such, he assumed she wouldn't mind him going ahead of her to go track the puppies. His long appendages swiftly carried him over the terrain, paws flattening leafs and such as he went along, nose pressed to the soil and twitching fervently to keep with the faint traces of the youths. Sure enough, he affirmed an odor of one and let out a blithesome bark. Lurching forwards, he began to dislike the on-setting darkness and assumed it best to go ahead and locate the puppies on his own should Rose procrastinate any longer.
 
Rose sighed and followed behind Pheonix until they got close to the puppies. THan she race forward to their location. "Shiloh," she barked loudily as she got closer. She did not frighten him when they approached. When she got back to the barn she would start to create order and let dogs know she was the Alpha Female here.


"Obviously I have done something wrong or you would not have run off like that," he barked.
 
Phoenix's heart lurched in beat as Rose bounded by, and he--being such a coward--ducked to the side, trudging around the long way in the general direction of the pups.
 
Rose slowed as she noticed Phoenix lagging but she kept going. She needed to get to the pups quickly.
 
From about five meters away, he kept his sight on Rose, figuring that she was going towards the pups. His powerful legs propelled him back beside Rose in position, snorting as they got closer. His curled-tail wagged slightly as he sprinted along, enjoying himself as his tongue flopped about on the side of his maw.
 
Rose tried to smile her nose close to the ground. That only allowed dirt into her maw and she had to stop smiling. She wagged her nub of a tail to show she was having fun. Phoenix towered over her but that did not really bother her.
 
At first he was alarmed that she'd gotten dirt into her mouth, but then he let out a raspy bark of laughter and smirked.
 
When she noticed him smirked Rose nudged him playfully. Then she raised her head, "Shiloh...puppies,"she barked as they kept running. Her collar let out one low soft whistle than stopped that would happen every ten minutes or so until they returned to the barn. The sun sunk lower in the sky it really was getting dark in the forest.
 
Phoenix let out a rambunctious bark as he was nudged, but as her collar emitted a gentle whistle, he freaked out, bolting in the direction of the p uppies. Skittishly he slowed about 4 meters away, turning to glance over his shoulder at her and whine. His shoulders slumped apologetically and his tail drooped towards his heels.


"Do you want me to go chase after them?" he inquired in a sharp yip, for he loved running and catching up the fleeing youths would be no problem.
 
"I don't want to frighten them," she barked as her collar whistled again. "YOu will get used to the whistle soon enough," she barked.
 
He nodded, body tensing rigidly as he cantered back over beside her, ears plastered back on his skull distastefully. He didn't like that whistle at all.
 
(Ack, Desole D= )


Prinny turned her head to peak out at Doc. "To put it simply, your speaking with an old mutt, not some young and frolicking pup. I refuse to argue with you, and it is as plain as that. You meant no harm, I know." Laying her head back down, she quirked an ear up, if Doc hadn't yet been ushered into his stall, that meant others were still out, didn't it?
 
(Your doing fine Esme its just the people who play the puppies have disappeared and we can't find the puppies until they do post:)


Doc sighed,"What did I say this time?" he barked still confused.
 
"Don't worry about it, Doc." Prinny said quietly, putting a paw over her eyes and bringing it down her nose so she could scratch at it.
 
A high pitched whistling noise came from Shiloh's collar. However, the collar was no where near Shiloh. (THe whistling noise is gunna make Rose go offtrack of where the pups are) A barking noise was coming towards the pup, and he jumped up to a standing position. "Someone's trying to get us! And it knows my name! Somebody help me!" The pup yelled and started running deeper into the forest. Soon, the pup tripped over his own feet and scrapped his tail. "Ow!" He yelped and started to cry.
 
Phoenix let loose a loud, distasteful howl at the whistling sound, truly loathing the note every time it sounded. His triangular ears perked at the distant falling of paws, and he bolted off in that direction, glad to not have to go anywhere near the pup and its collar. He wanted to investigate, so leaving Rose to locate the pup on her own, he unintentionally found himself bounding in Shiloh's general position.
 
Rose quickly located the collar and realized Shiloh had run away from it. She picked up before sniffing out the trail Shiloh had left. She realized she was getting closer to Pheonix again and let out a sharp bark to let him know she was getting close to him.


"Phoenix, Shiloh its me Rose please stop running," she barked her strong legs propelling her deeper into the woods.


Doc sighed,"What if I do it again? How am I supposed to do better?" he barked laying down in front of her stall.
 
"I'm sure you won't do it again. And I could not be sure." Prinny replied quietly, looking out at him before standing up slowly and padding over to him. Laying down next to him, she pressed her nose onto his neck. "Like I said, don't worry about it...."
 
Doc relaxed as he realized that Prinny wasn't mad at him anymore. He sighed and rested his head in the thick layer of shavings that coated the floor. His long ears fell across his paws so that you could only see his claws peak out from under them.
 
With renounced will to continue the chase, Phoenix took a single gargantuan lunge, spanning the distance between himself and the youth with the intent to lift it off the ground by the scruff and promptly end its romp.


Kota, now curled up in her stall, was shuddering violently with on-setting cramps. She felt sick to her stomach, like she would vomit. She could feel her unborn litter wiggling within her, and as happy as it made her to know that she would be a mother, she was frightened that she would have to parent the pups alone...


 
Rose caught sight of the tip of Phoenix's tail. She could tell they were getting closer to the puppy because the scent was getting stronger.
