A large golden dog was, in his opinion, leading his human down the street. Tucker wagged his tail continuesly as Kyle followed. With his nose to the ground, Tucker eagerly trotted in front of him, sniffing curiosly at the scents. Some from small game rodents that Tucker often helped tree and,after they were shot, took them back to Pops. Some of the scents were from humans who had passed by the spot, and some were from other dogs, some pets, some strays. He loved the early morning walks, but now it was mid day. Kyle jerked back on Tuckers lead and the dog halted, looking up to see what had caused the unexpected stop. He knew immediently. It was a female human, one Kyle always spoke fondly of. She had come over a few times, but Tucker never could remember her name. It was Lisa or Lilly or mabey Nilly or something like that. Tucker wagged his tail in a friendly greeting as she came over and bagan talking to his human boy. While the couple gossiped Tucker took his attention else where. He watched as a thing that humans called a 'UPS man' drove by. Tucker however didn't understand the meaning of this. He had always belived when a human said 'man' it was a bad thing. Because every time Kyle said it, he would have a bad tone and it would always be used after his elder parents commanded him to do something. And every time he would say "Aw man". So from the time he understood that word he had always alerted the humans with loud barks when the 'UPS man' came by the yard or two the door. Unfortunetly, he would be scolded, but he didn't know why. Tucker shoke his head and looked at a few humans entering a building full of things. Though Tucker had never accually been in the building he knew it had things in it because he had once been curious and watched humans enter with nothing and come out with bags of things. He felt a click at his collar as Kyle undid his collar."Go hom eallright" He dimised the dog and continued talking. Tucker didn't know what 'alright ment' but he knew 'go' and 'home'. When humans said 'go' it ment leave or to exit the eating place, and when they said 'home' this ment the house they lived in. But Tucker didn't want to return home yet. So he trotted off into a nearby parking lot in search of more interesting things.
