Female Timber Wolves Want Puppy Love Too

Omar Blue

I'm in the habit of taking a daily stroll. Gives me time to think about what's going on at K-9 Town and how happy we all are.

It's a shame there are always others here in the wilderness who want to change our way of life, but that doesn't worry us. We enjoy the challenges.

Our enemies are unable to guess our strength. We have secrets that they can't imagine.

I was just thinking about the vicious female timber wolves. They were very confused for awhile. Spying on the K-9 Town females and the puppies will get you that way.

This was their dilemma.

 

The K-9 Town puppies decided they would teach the potbellied piglets how to protect themselves. The puppies assumed that if there were big bad, mean timber wolves, there had to be little bad, mean timber wolves. The puppies and piglets agreed, they had to be ready.

They first made an opening in the bushes nearby, just big enough for timber wolf pups to know that it was for them. This was the timber wolf puppy trap.

Unfortunately, piglet training wasn't going well. The baby potbellies were having too much fun with this new contact activity. So much, that they were giving no consideration to the puppies well thought out plan.

 

No matter what the puppies tried, the little porky babies ended up sprawled out on top of them. The puppies were starting to ache and feel sore from this training effort.

 

 

They finally decided to try another tactic. The K-9 Town puppies would lure the wolf pups through the timber wolf puppy trap. The piglets would then sprawl out on top of the little trouble makers.

 

Of course neither puppy nor piglet gave thought to the fact that the same protective eyes that were watching them during their current antics, would be watching them then, and there would be no way any confrontation would take place.

 

As usual, the puppies were providing the females with much loved entertainment.

After deciding they had created the best plan ever, the puppies and piglets went back to normal fun and play, never to think about their perfect plan again.

 

As the female timber wolves continued to observe, also being delightfully held captive by the puppies amusement, the K-9 Town females gathered the puppies and piglets and started to take a walk. They walked, talked and made merry, seemingly not paying attention to the timber wolves right behind them.

 

If the timber wolves had followed any closer, it would have appeared that dogs and wolves were one group instead of two.

With no warning, the dogs reached a clearing with a body of water unlike anything the wolves had seen before. Smoke rose from the surface of the water, but the fire was yet to be seen.  

Instead of backing up, the K-9 Town females continued to go forward. So did the female timber wolves.

What the wolves saw next left them terrified!

Why were the dogs still going forward when they had to see them too?

Mountain Lions!!

There were lots of them relaxing, but not in the water.

As the K-9 Town females approached, the mountain lions actually greeted them fondly.

Afraid, but determined not to show it, the timber wolves continued to follow the dogs.

Bad move!

The mountain lions leaped directly in front of the wolves, bearing their teeth, and blocking their path.

 

 

Even Hanna was so afraid that she slicked back her ears and lowered her belly to the ground in complete submission.

 

As she and the other wolves cowered in fear, they heard one of the K-9 Town females call out.

 

“Thank you dear friends, we’ve gotten our point across.”

 

The mountain lions backed away, teeth beared and growling just to show the timber wolves that they were lucky the K-9 Town females had called them off.

 

 

When Hanna and the others regained their senses, they walked slowly over to the K-9 Town females who had just saved their lives. Under no circumstances would they consider passing the mountain lions again without the protection of the dogs.

It was the beautiful poodle Sophie Jean who spoke softly, as she could see the timber wolves were still shaken and afraid.

“The mountain lions were once our enemies.” she explained. “We had to show them our strength to gain their respect just as we will show our strength to Shocka Din and the rest of you, though it will take much less effort.”

 

“But for now,” added Conchita, the perky Chihuahua, “We invite you to join us in the soothing comfort of the hot water.”

 

“The water here will relax you and put you in mind of a better way to live, instead of the troublesome lives you have chosen,” said Pitbull Margie.

 

As they entered, the feeling was just as Conchita and Margie promised. Relaxing and delightful were the only words they could think of as they looked around, reading each other’s thoughts.

As if that weren’t enough, when they got out of the pond, the K-9 Town females immediately started making a fuss over them. As the wolves were shown a special way to help each other dry their thick furs in the sun, they were included in the K-9 Town females’ conversations about the upcoming Togetherness Celebration.

The timber wolves had never been treated like this. They loved feeling like they belonged to this group and this wonderful way of life.

 

 What does this mean? Are the female timber wolves having  change of hearts? Will their motherly instincts prevail?

We'll see.
