Kick Up The Dust

Jay didn't usually go far from home, so traveling even such a short distance away felt like she was exploring a whole new world. Not that this place was all that different from home but the skies seemed bigger somehow, the prairie dotted with few obstacles to stand in her way. The now-yearling nearly let out a pleased little bark, but what she saw up ahead gave her pause. It was a wolf - a pup, it looked like - whose posture said he was stalking something, maybe? At least he was trying to be cautious, instead of waltzing around recklessly like she was. The girl slowed her pace as she got closer, hoping to make her entrance apparent without being too loud, not wanting to spook the stranger. "Whatcha doin'?" She asked as she drew closer, tongue lolling from the side of her mouth as she greeted him with a friendly smile.
