The pup blinked open his eyes for the first time. He looked around. the first thing he saw was his Mother-Dog. then, he noticed a yellow bundle of fluff next to him. He nosed it and another pup lifted it's head. This one was a girl! Mother-Dog stirred, she licked him "Hello Spark" she rumbled.
Is that my name? Spark? I like it! Spark thought. He watched as Mother-Dog licked his sister and said "Hello Flame" My sister's name is Flame! Spark thought happily.
Spark looked at his sister, she was yellow with orange spots, and a large orange blotch over one eye. she was really pretty. Then, he looked down at his own fur. he was yellow with black spots! He licked Flame's cheek "Come on!" he woofed "Let's play!"
Flame leaped up and instantly fell down. Her legs sticking out like tails! Spark tried to stand, but was greeted with the same results. Mother-Dog made a rumbling sound, and at first Spark was scared that she was angry. Then he realized, she was laughing at him and Flame! Spark tried again, and managed to stay standing this time. But, he soon fell down again.
Mother-Dog laughed again before woofing "You must wait a few days my pups. your legs will grow yes, but you must let yourself rest."
Spark realized that he WAS tired. And hungry. so, he nuzzled close to Mother-Dog's belly and began to suckle, feeling the warm milk slide down his throat.
