Eljay considered doing the same or getting the piece of fox fur again, but he was afraid to startle the pup again. And he knew that nobody wanted the pups to turn out like him, so he somehow had to encourage them to be brave without doing anything too scary. "Raawr," Eljay said and he moved a paw forward to carefully bat at the puppy, hoping to make him play with his paw. He kept close to the ground all the while as to not seem too threatening.
