You like your new life in a rich mansion on a sea. There are always sunny days and free place to walk. Your new family likes to play with you too. It was fun to run on beach, to swim, to explore forest. You plaid with boy and girl. They think you are very smart dog.
The only problem was they are not speaknig English anymore. Maybe, you start to forget human language. Or, maybe, they were tourists from France or Spain. They speak English only when give your commands, thinking you trained to understand just simple “sit”, “stand” and “walk”. You could try to learn their language, but there are some problems. Your dog attention span is too short to focus it for more then five minutes. There are too many nice sounds and smells to lose time for a learning. Another school? No!
But, while not learning, you start to understand the “language” of other dog. It was not like human language, with words and sentences. By watching another dog pose, smelling it, you create something like a telepatic link. On this link, you can ask and answer some questions. The natural-born dogs are, of course, simple creatures, they know almost nothing except their masters and island they live. But they understand you are a former human, and this news spreads.
One day, a strange accident happens. While walking, you starts to feel a rough land. You stumbled for a while then sat. There are pain in your forepaws. You started to lick it, and found that your pawpads are disappearing! There are pink flesh instead. And more, your toes looks like they grew a little. You are finally reverting back!
With some difficulty, you toddled to your Master's home and starts to bark happily. “Wo-wo-wo-w-w” which have to mean “I'll be a human again”. A Father comes to you and you show him your bloody paws. “Oh, poor boy, come in” - said he and with some struggle lifted you to his hands. He then bandaged your paws and then put you on back seat of his car. After some time, he come to a vet office.
There were happily no other visitors there and you invited immediately. A doctor unwrapped a bandage and said to Father. -”Sorry, do you speak English, I'm new here?”
- Yes. Waht happens with him?
- An usual case of ACD, animal ceratine disorder. Symptoms are: loss of fur, nose depigmentation, strange barkings, paw pads deflation, in hard cases muzzle and tail shrinkage and anomal hind legs grows. Nobody knows it cause.
- Is it infectious?
- No, it looks like a genetic malfunction. Let's look... Oh, yes, this dog is one of these. Dewclaws on its hind legs and only two milk nipples. There are common traits.
- Please, do not euthanize him! He saved my son!
- Oh, no problem, I have a wonderful cure. I just apply this on wounded places and he will be healthy in no time. But be careful, it is highly toxic for humans! Use only in protective gloves. And give him these pills one a day next month. After full course your dog will live healthy until old age, it could not happens twice.
The Doctor applied some ointment to your paws, and pain recedes. Then you have been picked up to car and moved back to your home. After a pill you got sleepy.
Early morning, you woke up to see more changes. Using your teeth, you unwrapped bandages. And... You see paw pads grew back like never disappearing. And more, now you remember the smell of ointment. It is the smell of that BOD shampoo.
