Immediately Jason noticed something strange. His father's chestnut brown hair with sprinkles of gray began to grow. His normally short head hair began to lengthen slightly, indicating something was happening. His father's well kept beard showed signs of decay and rampancy, revealing a more untamed and ungroomed nature. Also, because his father was shirtless, it was apparent that his large amount of chest hair was becoming even larger. The thick bush he normally had became even more unmanaged. His father didn't notice the changes as he was still angry from getting splashed. Jason gave the towels he had brought to Michael. Michael began to clean up the remaining potion lingering on his body, soaking the towel in a large amount of it. "Leave me along so I can go back to sleep!", his father commanded. Jason quickly replied, "I like this show," gesturing to the TV. "I just want to watch it for a bit." Michael sighed, "Fine, just be quiet." Jason was going to have a hard time being quiet, as he wasn't interested in the show. He was far more interested in the changes his father was going to go through.
Jason sat down, side eyeing his father every few moments. The hair situation grew even more out of control as hair began to appear more on his arms. His father still did not notice, watching the TV calmly. Michael would jostle every once and while, looking like he was uncomfortable in his chair. He scratched at his back and his pants, trying to find a position he liked. It occurred to Jason what was happening, his father was growing a tail! "Ah! I can't get comfortable again! Why did you have to wake me up," Michael complained. He got up from his chair and put his hands down his pants to reach an itch. As he scratched, his face changed from annoyance to curiosity to confusion. "There's a bump on butt," he said. Jason replied, "I can take a look if you like." Michael grew flustered, but knowing that no one was home he agreed. He pulled down his pants a bit so Jason could take a look, and sure enough there was a nub there. Jason immediately knew his father was turning into a dog. Michael gave a breath of relief as he pulled down his pants. He began panting as the room around him grew hot. "I think I just need to take these off for a bit." Jason's father began undressing, becoming totally naked. That's when his dad noticed something was wrong. "Have I always been this hairy? I think I need to shave." Jason responded, "No dad, I think you should just enjoy it." Michael gave a confused look, but strangely didn't argue.
Jason noticed his father's hair getting thicker and thicker, as his dad's large gut began to retract slightly. Michael's body began to contort in weird ways. Michael fell to the floor, no longer being able to stand. His face portrayed anxiety and fear. "Jason, what's happening, I need help!". Jason simply smiled, "You'll be happy soon enough." His father's face began to pucker as he felt a sharp pain. Michael's mouth began to extend from his face, showing a clear development of a muzzle. His father cramped as his legs and back reformed to support his new posture. Satisfying cracks accompanied the change of position. The nub that was Michael's tail had grew fuller and fuller until it became a full fledged tail. Michael gave one last cry for help and he was almost unrecognizable at this point. "Plwese Jaooson, Halp meee." His speech had slurred dramatically, stretching into howls. The speech became entirely howling, as Michael completely disappeared, looking exactly like the family dog Jake. Eventually the howling stopped, as the light in Michael's old eyes became dark just like Jake's. Following however, was the sound of scampering. Immediately the original Jason came into the living room, responding to the loud howls he heard. The two dogs immediately began to inspect each other, and then play together. Jason thought it was fun watching his old dad play around as a now mangy mutt.
