A man and woman walked into the pound with a teenage girl following behind them. They had called the pound earlier and questioned about the dogs they had; after hearing about Silent Snow, they thought she would be a good pet for them. The family stopped beside her kennel and made all sorts of human talking noises. The teen stuck her hand through the bars, reaching for the hybrid to pet her.
The woman smiled and looked up at the man, speaking briefly to him. Her voice was kind.
The man spoke in reply; his voice was stern but enthusiastic too.
*the last of her family the fem thought this would be her chance. she stood up and cautiously walked to the teenager’s hand.*
She petted the hybrid's head and scratched behind her ears. She then looked eagerly back to her parents, speaking strange human words to them. They talked for a moment before the man turned and got the attention of a pound worker. She came over and slid the kennel door open just enough for her to reach in with a leash and collar. She tried to get these around Silent Snow's neck.
*she showed interest in the collar and leash. she had seen them put on her sister and mother and padded up closer to sniff at it.*
The collar was slipped quickly on, and the leash was connected to it. The end of the leash was handed to the teen, who seemed very pleased now. Silent Snow's kennel door was opened up, and the girl tugged lightly at the leash to coax the hybrid out. The man and woman began to walk towards the exit, with their daughter following; this is, if Silent Snow followed after her. They were heading for their van outside.
*holding her tail and head high seeing the cage door open the sweet hybrid didn't need any coaxing to come out. she pranced out and woofed to the them. she started to trot to see if the teen would also start a jog.*
The teen laughed lightly and jogged with Silent Snow. They exited the Dog Pound and approached their van. The teen opened the back of it and climbed in herself. "Come on, Snow!" she said, patting the floor of the van. She thought the name 'Snow' would fit her new pet quite nicely.
The man and woman also got in the van and turned the motor on, waiting for Silent Snow to get in.
*she thought snow was close to her name. just one word and it would be her name. she wagged her tail and hopped in the van. she started to sniff the seats and carpet around her.*
After the teen had closed the van's back door, the vehicle lurched back. After turning about, it then lurched forward and pulled out of the parking lot. Soon enough, it was bouncing down a long road that led to Rothas Crater National Park. They were headed for the Camp Sites. All the while, the teen petted Silent Snow or talked to her.
