The snow was nothing like she had ever experienced. The young dog was from an incredibly hot and dry landscape. Her entire life had been a fenced outback, only until recently when she had moved to Montana, to be a victim of a lonely life in a heavily forested, and much, much cooler place, which she still didn't fully understand. Crammed into a box, and eventually arriving in a chilly and frightening life with people she didn't know. As time passed they had carried her around like a baby doll until one day they had felt comfortable enough to let her off leash. Well to say, she had wandered too far, and they never found her. Fast forward four months later and here she was, exploring this cold and violent life by herself.
Blond fur bounced as she strode, struggling through deep snow, the coast on her right, deep forest on her left. How she managed was something else, but she had. She had yet to come across any other scents beside vermin and possibly life threatening creatures, such as... round dogs? bears? fortunately her small stature and speed served her well for the time being. A river parted her path and she followed it until crossing a scent she had not yet smelled. A..what... Her upright ears perked and she carefully moved along the banks of the river, eventually noticing a speck in the distance. Withholding a nervous whine she approached, on the otherside of the river, appreiciating at very least the distance of the rushing, albiet nearly frozen waters. Standing at the other side of the river, she peered across at the giant dog...wolf.. she didn't quite know. Her eyes wide, unsure what to say..tail swaying slow behind her haunches. Uncertainly her muzzle parted in a quiet, possibly inaudible bark of curiosity. "G'day?" She woofed, all she had gathered from the brutes scent was that he was indeed a male.. her body held her stance but her mind told her to run, however she didn't, mere inquisitively driving her. Besides the body of water separating them, her cool auburn eyes fixed on him, having never seen quite such a sight.
