Harry sat in the waiting room of a child psychologist with his mum and dad. He was playing with one of the waiting room toys. An old wooden roller coaster toy, where you had to move the pieces up and down whirly tracks. His mum scrolled her phone answering messages from work and family while Dad kept an eye on Harry while reading a car magazine.

"Heeler Family?" Came from the intercom. "Your welcome to come in now."

Dr. Nimbus was a labrador retriever like Uncle Bandits neighbor Pat. Labradors where common in the therapy field as they had an uncanny knack for making others feel at easy and welcome to feel safe in their presence and Harry was no different. He had already had an appointment with Harry's parents without the child present, now he would observe the boy before asking the tough questions.

What was your life like with the Dursleys? Describe your average day to me.

Did they ever do "mean" things to you?

Did Mr and Mrs Dursley ever touch you in your you know where areas?

Difficult questions, but necessary when cases of child abuse rose.

"How are things progressing at home?" He asked to begin as the beagle boy played with trucks on the floor.

"Things are getting better." Frisky said. "We still have occasional night terrors with varying subjects. But they're getting better with the pre bed relaxation techniques you recommended. The classical music hour really helps."

"I'm going to prescribe a small dose of Benzodianzepine to help the Terrors since they havent stopped."

"See you next month." Dr. Nimbus said kindly as he opened the exit door in his office.

Just observing the child for an hour gave the psychologist a plethora of information about him.

He definitely was nervous around strangers. But then, most children are. We teach them to be cautious around strangers.

Radley and Frisky Heeler are definitely positive influences in his life. He seems to be more relaxed despite being nervous about the "New Doctor." Visit. He is getting used to being called a Son instead of being called a burden. He is slowly but steadily adjusting to a normal functional family life. All good things.

Somethings puzzled him though.

Night Terrors. Sometimes Children had Terrors. It was common enough to be considered a normal childhood experience unfortunately but Harry's seemed to focus on one topic.

The death of his parents.

Who where they? What did they do that made them targets for death? Was it a random axe murderer or a car crash? They said Aunt Chili, the Sister in Law, heard him speaking in a deep voice "Stand aside you silly girl."

Who did the voice belong to? Was the villain of this story trying to kill Harry purposefully? He was just a puppy, why?

So many questions he nor Harry could answer.

Dr. Nimbus looked at the photo attatched to his patients file. "Who are you?" He asked.

"So thats basically it so far." Rad said to Stripe and Bandit as they sipped coffee at a shop.

"Your doing the right thing brother." Stripe said as he bit into a sandwhich.

"Yeah i mean God only knows what those sorry bastards did to that poor kid while he was with them." Bandit added as he sipped a Mocha (Made with canine safe chocolate always)

"We're doing everything we can." Rad sipped his vanilla latte. "Harry's adjusting well though. Gets along with the girls at least."

Bandit and Chili where regular overnight babysitters for Harry when Frisky had night shift and Rad had extreme overtime in the office. He was racking up those work hours for hopefully starting Harry a Uni fund.

Harry was a smart kid. Payed attention when Bandit would tell him about old tribes he was digging around for or researching some other ancient cultures. Usually these tales would bore Bluey to tears or put Bingo to sleep it was refreshing to have such a young mind absorb the knowledge. Another archaeologist in the family perhaps? A Jones Party was definitely in order for a guys night.

Stripe and Trixie on the other hand, Rad had seen their parenting style and while he adored Muffin and Socks as he adored Bluey and Bingo Bandit and Chili clearly where the better parents. Rad and Frisky didnt want to trust Harry with Stripe and Trixie until they where more responsible as parents.

"Hello luv." Rad heard behind as he smiled and Frisky came up with Harry. "We just left the salon with the girls."

"I got my toeclaws cut!" Harry said excitedly.

"Nice." Rad said encouragingly. "Maintenence is always important. Boop!" He booped Harry's nose making him laugh.

"We also had a nice lunch with the aunties and cousins ready to go home?" Frisky asked.

"Sure." Rad said as he grabbed his keys and half finished coffee. "See you guys later." He said to his brothers.

Bandit and Stripe watched their big brother get in his new family car with smiles as their own families came up to go home from a nice Saturday out with the family.

Whats this?

30 Years Later...

"Oh someones at the door." Frisky said as they heard the doorbell go off.

"Harry!"

The 30 year old Beagle smiled at his parents. "Mum!" He hugged Frisky. "Hi Dad." He hugged Rad too. "Remember your back." He warned the older Heeler.

"Oh you arent ever gobna esacpe Dad's Bear Hugs." Rad said as he hugged Harry.

"Is Ginny with you?" Frisky asked.

"She has training with the Holy Head Harpies today but sends her love and will pop by if training runs short because of weather." Harry said. "She sends her love. And Molly's cookies for the little ones." Harry brought round a huge tray of home made chocolate chip cookies from his mother in law.

"Dear God Molly Weasley's home made chocolate chip cookies" Rad drooled.

"ONE." Frisky elbowed Rad. "Remember your blood sugar."

"Mum its okay. She remembered Dad." Harry said bringing round a bag. "She made these with a magic based sugar substitute guaranteed to not hurt diabetics all the flavor of sugar without the risk."

Rads tail wagged. "Remind me to write her a thank you note." He said to Frisky.

"Everyone's out back." Frisky said as she and Harry chatted while walking.

BING BONG

Rad opened the door. A closer looked showed a greyer muzzle. More salt and pepper in his once rainbow colored fur. His once blonde hair now graying. "Huh. No one. Thats weird."

He heard giggling. Inside.

Rad suddenly smiled wide. And closed the door. "Welp i guess i better get to the backyard."

"OOF." Rad grunted as a small Beagle boy of 4 jumped on his back from the stair case. "There he is!" Rad said happily as he hugged his grandson.

"Grandpa Rad!" Little James said excitedly.

"Ready for some Aussie Barbie? Your cousins and great aunties and uncles are here too."

"Uncle Bandit and Aunt Chili? Yay!" James hanged off Rad's shoulder like a koala as the two went to the backyard.

To Be continued...

So yeah gave yall a little Surprise style glimpse into Harry's future its pretty much following HP canon.

I thought labs as therapy dogs made sense.

Apologies for the Sign confusion. I may just do a few episodes of Bluey here and there aside from a few original chapters like this one.
