The female human, known as Isabella, set her in the kitchen sink. She turned on the hot water and then quickly the cold so it didn't burn her. She then gave Rei a quick little bath. When finished, she wrapped her in a towel and set her on the counter next to it. She then began to towel dry her fur. Bleau sat and watched as her daughter got pampered.
"Honey, wash the boys in the tub and give them dark blue bowties, please." Isabella yelled across the house to Mason.
"I already am, Babe." he replied calmly.
She then continued to the dry the pup's fur. When she finally finished, she ran her hand over her head to mess up the fur a little bit. After grabbing a light blue ribbon, she tied it around Rei's neck to form a pretty bow. Before tightening it, she moved it to the back of her neck to make her look like a gift.
"You look beautiful." she whispered and kissed her on the head. Rei couldn't help but wag her tail and bark cutely. Isabella smiled and walked towards the front door to a giant box. She set Rei in the box and pushed it out the front door. As she started setting out toys and hiding treats, Bleau stuffed her head into the box and licked Rei.
"A man or two will wear uniform similar to what Mason and your father wear. When they do, don't worry about acting tough- act cute." Rei nodded like she was going to, but she remembered what Jock told her.
"Here Honey. I did the best I could with the bowties..." Mason walked outside and placed the other three in the box.
"It looks fine." Isabella wrapped her arms around Mason's neck and kissed him.
Jock came outside and sat next to the box just as a black car pulled up. Bleau stood on the opposite side.
"Bleau, sit." Mason instructed. She did as told as a man approached the couple.
"Mason. Jock." the taller man shook Mason's hand and then Jock's paw.
"Sheriff," Mason nodded in response while shaking his hand.
"So, who do we have here?" the man questioned as he knelt down in front of the box. Twix jumped up and licked his nose.
"Well, that one there is Twix. The golden colored one staring at you is Rex. The two dark ones are Rei and Veilor." Mason stated.
"Rei is the only girl." Isabella added.
"Let's test out their tracking skills first." he let them all out of the box and watched as the four pups wandered around, confused.
"Pups, go find the treats with your nose." Jock barked.
Understanding, the pups sniffed the ground, searching for treats. Twix ran around finding most of them. Rex running alongside him finding the ones he missed. Veilor and Rei walked around, not finding one. Rei tripped over a stick and fell on top of one by mistake. She then lifted her head as a squirrel gnawed on a nut a few yards away. She looked at Veilor who was close by and nodded, signaling that they should double team it. Veilor crawled in front of her slowly.
"Now!" he leapt forwards and chased the squirrel, Rei running alongside him. They both were barking repeatedly as they gave chase.
"Rei, Veilor, stop!" Mason yelled.
"You have to be more stern with pups," the Sheriff paused and then yelled, "Veilor! Rei! Come here! Now!" the pups skidded to a stop and turned around to face him. They immediately ran back his direction, tails tucked.
