stanley, or just Stan for short, was a cattle dog for the marsh’s farm. He was 4 years old in human years, and his main job was to herd the cows on the big fields and keep watch. He especially had to watch the soon to be mother cows, nearing the end of their pregnancy as spring was coming soon.

stan sniffed around, trotting around and keeping the cows in check as he heard a loud moo, catching his attention. He headed towards it, hearing it again. He looked around, seeing a cow moo loudly at a rustling bush nearby. This immediately got Stan to bolt over.

he slowed his pace as he arrived in front of her, staring at the rustling bush. He dug his snout into the bush, yelling out and backing away when he saw two glowing green eyes on top of a reddish-orange face.
