Chapter 3
Well, lets continue with our story. The dog had a brown color. In some parts of the body, like on the shoulders, it had hair which was the same color as the smoothest parts of the body. On the nose, it had a white stripe through the eyes and across the middle of it's face. The breed is a Brittany. The dog was a she-dog. She had matted fur with a big wound on her leg that she was limping on. Without he injuries and stuff, she would of been a really pretty dog. When White Star saw her, he was amazed, and he thought: another domesticated dog wanted to be wild? I thought I was the only one. White Star only saw her when he woke up.
Why was a Brittany up here in the forest, you might think? Well, with our hero, lets find out. We'll start from the beginning.
When our hero was sleeping, Brittany slowly and carefully, quietly came up to White Star so that she wouldn't wake him up. Soon, in about five minutes he woke up. He freaked out when he saw one of his own kinds, an elder dog. I mean, he had seen his siblings and his mom, but not another breed. He had seen his dad only once. He always wanted to see his father and he was the only puppy that really liked him. He was also the father's favorite puppy. Anyway, let's go on with the story.
"Wah!!!" White Star screamed.
"Oh, sorry if I freaked you out. At first I thought that you were dead when I first saw you from the predators. But when I came up to you, I noticed you breathing, and I got unscared." Brittany told him.
"Oh, sorry. So, what's a predator?" White Star asked.
"Oh, a predator is an animal that eats other animals. Some of them can be small just like you." She answered him.
"WHAT!! Someone can eat--"
"No, nobody will eat you, I'll promise you that. A predator can get close to you, but not eat you. You're so cute, who would ever eat you. I'll protect you don't worry. When you're grown up then you'll protect yourself. Ok?"
Brittany didn't know if he will get eaten but she just lied to him. She was starting scared from what she just said. She knew that there's 50 chance that each one of them will get eaten. Now, she figured out that this puppy is dependent on her to protect him.
"me---I'm adorable--I'm cute—I-I don't know what to say. You will? Thanks." White Star said.
White Star already liked this dog. He knew that they will get along. He pictured the days the would be ahead of him, and he started wishing to see a predator someday.
"Yes, you are adorable and cute. And yes, I'll try to protect you." She told him. "Now, let's get us get to know each other and then we'll start to have a big journey. For this journey, we'll need to know a lot about each other. Ok?"She continued.
"Ok, so what's your name? I don't have a name, since I'm just a eighteen week old puppy but my siblings call me White Star. This is because of this star on my chest." White Star told him.
"Oh, my name is Brittany. I'm just two and a half years old. I'm a Brittany, what is your breed?"
"What's a breed?" White Star asked.
"A breed is like a group of animals that have the same family. And, there's many of them in the world. There are horse breeds, dog breeds and cat breeds. You're a dog right?"
"Right. Oh, I get it."
"Well, there's many breeds in the dog country. Which one are you?"
"Well, I'm like a Retriever Golden or something like that."
"You mean Golden Retriever."
"Yeah, that's it. Anyway, what's for breakfast."
"You're hungry?"
"Yep"
"Well, to get food, we need to run after some small animals like rabbits."
"So we're predators too?"
"Well, dogs used to be free, and we used to hunt, so yes. But dogs turned to be house pets. Now, they can protect themselves but not that much. Wolves-our ancestors started hunting on us since we're not that big. So, we can get into great danger if we see a wolf."
"Ok, show me how to hunt. I'll promise you to learn fast."
"It's not that easy, you can't learn it in just a hour or even day. You have to practice and patience. That's it. "
