Come Gather 'Round People

Callie sits straight as others begin to poor in, some offering names while others just appear. When Solaire plops down between herself and Nelu, the girl shifts sideways to given the pup more room. Her eyes roam the growing group and she smiles happily at her sister before waving her over. Bramble plops done on her other side, offering a quick hello to which she replies, “Hey’a Bramble!” With that done, the girl turns her gaze back to Andy, ready to learn.

The lesson begins and the pups are paired off and Callie eagerly waits to hear her named called. Her smile falters as pairs gather and move off but she is left… sitting. Finally, Andy looks to her and informs the girl that she will be working with her. Immediately the girl bounces up to her paws, happily chirping, “Okay!” Callie doesn’t mind working with the teacher and, once they reach a clear area, she nods to Andy as the lavender girl excuses herself.

She finds out that they will be learning about attacking and the girl’s tail wags excitedly. Andy returns, using her as an example and Callie smiles up at the other girl. Once the lesson begins, she looks Andy over. Finally, she looks at one of the girl’s front legs and pokes at her ankle, saying, “I would attack here to try and bring you to the ground." Andy gives her praise, making her tail wag before excusing herself again. Callie nods and allows her eyes to roam over the groups, watching their progress.
