This is a story dedicated to my Uncle, I'm sure that if he were to read this today, he would've liked it.
It was a clear beautiful day at a house near the woods, Two Dalmatians were watching their pups, their names were Damon and Jenna, the pups were playing with each other. The female Dalmatian pup with two white ears and three spots in a straight line on her body was playing tag with her brothers, her name was Balance.
“Try to catch me, bro.” Balance said to one of her brothers.
There were three male Dalmatian pups as well one had a black left ear, a white right ear, five spots on his left fore leg, a scar on his right fore paw, a series of spots that form a fire symbol on his back and three spots on his hind legs. His name was Shawn.
Another Male Dalmatian had a left white ear, a right black ear, spots like a regular Dalmatian and wearing a Navy Blue Bandanna, his name was Shane.
One last Male Dalmatian had two black ears, spots like a regular Dalmatian, a left black fore leg, a white right leg and spots on his hind legs. His name was Blake.
Blake was it, but the three pups knew that Shawn couldn’t run very fast which would make him an easy target, so they would try to match Shawn’s speed just a little and pick it up some, except when it’s his turn to tag one of his siblings, they would slow down so Shawn would catch up and get a chance to tag them.
Jenna walked up to her pups, she knew that they would like to hear the news about their uncle. “Alright, my children, it’s time to listen up.” She said to them, she saw Balance and her siblings walk up to her. “Your uncle is on his way to visit us, so I want you four on your best behavior.”
“We understand.” Balance said to Jenna. “When do you think he’ll be here?”
“He just hitched a ride on a moving truck, so he should arrive here shortly.” Jenna replied to Balance.
Jenna also knew that if anyone could get Shawn to try different food, Bud could. “Cool, do you think he knows any Video Games or TV Shows?” Blake asked. “We…” Jenna started to say, but knew that Blake was into this kind of stuff but knew that they never had that when they were growing up, at least not when they were puppies. “Well…”
Blake’s eyes widen with excitement as he smiled and wagged his tail happily. “We did go to a hill somewhere when we knew where a drive in theater was.”
“Cool.” Blake said to Jenna.
Just then a moving truck with a Collie and an Adult Male Dalmatian with two black ears, his right fore leg had a series of spots that form into a Snake, his back had a series of spots that formed into a battleship, his name was Bud.
“He’s here.” Balance spoke as she saw the Adult Male Dalmatian was getting off the back of the truck. “Thanks for the ride.” He said to the Collie.
“It was my pleasure after hearing your owner fought in the war.” The Collie spoke.
Bud then felt a rain drop fall on his head, he sighed. “Something wrong?” The Collie asked. Bud shook his head. “No, it’s just that whenever I get out of a car, it begins to rain.” He replied.
“Ah, I see.” The Collie spoke, he then looked and saw the family. “Hope you have a good time with your family.”
“Thanks, I will.” Bud replied as he watched the Truck take off. “Uncle Bud!!” He heard voices and saw that four of the pups including his sister were walking up to him, he smiled as he walked up to them.
Blake smiled as he stuck his tongue out to keep cool. “Is it true that you can make that Snake Spot move?” He asked him.
Bud smiled. “Of course.” He replied to Blake, he took his right foreleg and showed him by flexing it as he started humming an Egyptian song.
Jenna just smiled as she chuckled a bit. “That’s my fault there, bro, I told Blake that you could move that Snake spot on your arm.” She admitted.
“It’s alright.” Bud assured Jenna. “I was wondering when someone would ask me about the Snake Spot.”
Jenna looked at her pups. “Okay children, run along and play while I catch up on things with my brother.” She said to them.
The pups ran along and played. “It’s a good thing you’re here.” Jenna said to Bud, she looked at the pups that were playing with each other. “What’s wrong?” Bud asked.
“I… I’m worried about Shawn, he doesn’t eat anything except for what he really likes, he’s missing out on the scraps that Adam and his girlfriend is giving us, Hamburgers unless there’s nothing but the Patty, Mac and Cheese, Hot Dogs, you name it, he eats it, but he won’t go near anything that’s maybe healthy or even new food like Corn, Peas, you get the idea.”
“I see, just leave it to your brother, I’m sure I can get him to eat different kinds of food.” Bud said to his sister. “Thanks, I really do appreciate that.” Jenna said to her brother, she walked back to the porch where Damon was waiting with Bud following right behind her.
Bud watched Balance, Shawn, Shane and Blake play together as they normally would, but kept feeling the rain drops from the sprinkling as he looked at his Niece and Nephews. “Alright, it looks like it’s going to rain.” He said to them. “Let’s head inside.”
The pups were disappointed with the comment since they enjoyed the rain, but knew that it would probably be pouring down rain. “Okay.” Balance said to Bud, she along with Shawn and Shane headed inside the house.
Bud looked at Blake. “After we get inside, why don’t you help me with a game?” He asked him.
Blake smiled. “Sure.” He replied. “What game are we talking about?”
“It’s a game that people call Crash Bandicoot.” Bud replied to his nephew as they entered the house, Blake knew what his Uncle Bud was talking about as he had played many Video Games that Adam had installed on an Emulator for his Computer. “I know what game you’re talking about, Uncle.” He spoke as he walked over to the Laptop that was being used by Adam.
Adam looked and saw that Blake and Bud were walking toward him. “I see that you want to use the Laptop, Blake, hold on and let me get you set up.” He said to him as he pulled out his drawer and got out a joystick and a Controller, he let Blake see them.
Blake walked over to the Controller and pawed at it. “Good choice.” Adam said to Blake as he put the Joystick up, he then plugged the controller up onto the Laptop, and looked at Blake. “What game would you like to play?” He asked.
Blake pondered on this as Jenna walked into the room, Blake then had an idea as he barked at Adam as if to say. “Crash Bandicoot.” Adam smiled as he set the game up for Blake and looked at Blake, Bud and Jenna after looking at the clock. “I guess that it’s time to make dinner.” He said to them as he got up from his chair and walked into the Kitchen.
Blake saw Adam leave and looked at his uncle. “What level are you having trouble with?” He asked.
Bud looked at Blake and looked at the game. “Let me show you.” He said to Blake, his nephew handed him the controller and Bud randomly pressed some buttons. “Bud, what are you doing?” Jenna asked as she tilted her head seeing what her brother was doing with the controller.
Bud looked at his sister. “Playing the game as those kids do it on TV.” He replied.
Jenna just couldn’t help but chuckle at what her brother said. “It’s no wonder why you keep losing on those video games.” She said to him as she walked up to Blake and Bud, Bud nodded and handed the controller to Blake. “Here, you go, Blake.” He said to his Nephew.
Balance was on the couch in the living room watching the rain pour down hard, she couldn’t believe that the rain was ruining their chance to play outside, Bud was watching from afar as he walked up to her. “What’s wrong, Balance?” He asked.
The female pup let out a sigh and was about to say something when she heard her Uncle begin to ask her something. “Is it boy trouble?” He asked trying to guess what was eating his Niece, Balance blushed and shook her head. “No, it’s not that, it’s actually the rain.” She said to her Uncle.
Bud sat down on the floor and looked up at his Niece. “Don’t worry, the rain will let up soon, but I do recommend staying inside for the day, unless Adam has a mat where you can wipe your paws on, before coming inside.” He said to her.
“Why?” Balance asked.
“You don’t want Adam to scold you for bringing mud in, do you?” Bud asked.
Balance shook her head no in response and looked at her uncle. “Good point.” She spoke as she got down off the couch. “I’m sure you and your siblings will get to play outside tomorrow.”
Balance smiled and nodded in agreement as she got off the couch, and nuzzled Bud’s right foreleg and headed toward the kitchen to get a drink of water.
Bud smiled as he watched Balance walk toward the Kitchen, then heard a voice coming from the distance. “Shane?” He asked as he walked over to Shane and the TV, seeing him watching a show on TV.
“What are you watching, Shane?” Bud asked.
“A program where this guy is talking about Friction.” Shane replied.
“That’s interesting.” Bud said to Shane.
“Yeah, without it, did you know we couldn’t be standing on our paws?” Shane asked.
“Yep, I’m pretty sure, we all know that.” Bud replied with a chuckle patting Shane’s head.
“Food’s ready!!” Adam called out to the whole house.
Shane turned off the TV with his paw pressing the button on the remote and followed Bud into the Kitchen where he saw Balance, Shawn, Blake, Jenna and Damon with some scraps from last night, when they had Hamburgers with Lettuce, Tomatoes, Onions and Pickles, with Mayo, Ketchup and Mustard, Shane walked over to his dish and started eating his burger, Bud saw that everyone else was eating but Shawn.
“You’re not eating?” Bud asked Shawn.
Shawn shook his head. “I just like my burger with nothing but Ketchup and a Hamburger Patty.” He replied.
Bud walked over to Shawn and sat down next to him. “I don’t care if you like it with everything on it or not, but please at least try it.” He said to Shawn. “Then if you don’t like it, then you don’t have to eat it.”
Shawn knew that his uncle was right as he sniffed the burger and began to eat it like his Uncle wanted, he smiled as he began eating the whole thing. “See, its good isn’t it?” Bud asked. After eating some of the burger and swallowing it, Shawn nodded. “Yes sir.” He replied.
“That’s good, from now on, just try different food.” Bud said to Shawn.
“I will.” Shawn said to Bud.
Bud smiled seeing his nephew eating the burger just the way it is and saw that his sister was smiling as well, knowing that Bud got her son to actually try something new for a change than just a hamburger with Ketchup, hopefully now she hopes that Shawn will try different kinds of food.
