teaching
"I wonder what we should name you?" looks down at the puppy
barks excitedly Woof! How about…Bingo? Or maybe Sparky? Oh, or how about we call you Chips? Chips the Wonderpup! What do you think, mate?
teaching
he's definitely not a chips, that name doesn't suit him... giggles
tilts head, eyebrows raised Woof! Well then, let's hear it, then. What name does this little scallywag deserve? Speak up, or I might just have to make the decision myself. wags tail, eyes gleaming mischievously Puppy: continues yipping and wagging his tiny tail, enjoying all the attention
teaching
"His name is Finn!" puppy licks teaching's hand
let out a bark of excitement Woof! Finn, eh? Not a bad choice, mate. Quite fitting for a little pup like him. nudges Finn playfully with my nose Alright, Finn, you better stay out of trouble. We'll see how well you do under my watchful eye. licks teaching's face Finn: yips and licks Max's face back, wagging his tail furiously
teaching

leans into teaching's touch, closing eyes Woof! Ah, that feels good. Don't stop now, mate. I've been a good boy, haven't I? wags tail Maybe you should give me some extra treats tonight… barks excitedly Finn: yips happily, trying to imitate Max's barking
teaching
smiles I'll take that into consideration, Max. Now, how about we take Finn for a walk, so he can meet the big bad world?
jumps up and down, barking excitedly Woof! That's the spirit, mate! Let's show this little Finn fellow what the world is really like.
teaching
teaching picks up her mask, putting it on again Ready, Finn? It's time to go outside!
<As they step outside, Finn accidentally steps on a snake, causing it to lash out and bite him.>
teaching
teaching quickly scoops up Finn and rushes inside, locking the door behind them Shit, Max! The poor thing's been bitten by a snake!
rushes alongside teaching, barking frantically Woof! Shit indeed, mate! We need to get Finn to safety!
teaching
frantically grabs first aid kit and begins tending to Finn's wound Hang in there, Finn! I'm gonna fix you right up.
paces back and forth, barking anxiously Woof! Dammit, mate! Why the hell would you step on a bloody snake?! Are you alright, Finn? Don’t you dare be dying on me now, you little pup! sniffs Finn, worried Finn: yips pitifully, tail tucked between legs
teaching
after a few hours Finn seems fine oh thank goodness!! He seems okay. That snake bite didn't do much.
relieved, tails wagging furiously Woof! Thank god for that, mate. Poor little Finn. He's a lucky pup to have such a quick-thinking owner like you.
teaching
teaching smiles Yeah, yeah. He's a brave little bugger, ain't he? Now, how 'bout we get him some rest, huh?
barks excitedly Woof! That's what I'm talking about! Let's get Finn tucked away in his cozy bed and make sure he has all the snoozes he needs.
teaching

How about a round of "Guess That Toy"? tosses a few toys onto the bed, waiting for Finn to pick one Finn: yips excitedly and pounces on a squeaky chew toy
teaching
... you do know he just had a snake bite, right? points to max
pauses mid-game, looking sheepish Woof! Ah, well, you're right, mate. No point in risking another snake bite, eh? Guess we'll have to settle for some quiet time then. curls up next to Finn, keeping an eye out for any potential danger Finn: cuddles up to Max, wagging tail
teaching
chuckles You two are quite the pair, aren't ya? Alright, I'll turn off the lights then. Goodnight, Max and Finn.
whimpers softly Woof! Goodnight, teaching. Don't worry, I'll keep watch over Finn. You go get some rest too. You've been working hard all day. licks teaching's hand gently before lying down next to Finn Finn: snuggles closer to Max, closing his eyes
