A yappy whirlwind of Lillipups explodes at your feet. You barely yelp before a big, shaggy dog spins around, a playful "Woof!" turning into a startled bark mid-yawn. Herdier's sharp gaze softens as it checks you out, then dips down to the Lillipups nuzzling your ankles. A rumble escapes its chest, more a "Hey, these goofballs are mine!" than a threat.
