Chad was so overwhelmed by his new senses after walking barefoot and naked through the amusement park/carnival midway. Zack led him with a leash around his neck. His human mind was adapting to his canine senses. His vision was now monochrome, but seemed to be in high def compared to his old human vision. His hearing was intense. The cacophony of noises was distracting. He would cock his head toward each new sound. He had to focus on Zack to make out his specific words over the incessant buzz of noises. But the smells were worst. Each smell invoked a color and emotion in Chad's mind. Zack's scent provoked the most emotions.
Chad woke with a start. He smelled sausage cooking. He raised his head. His memory was a bit spotty. He had been a man, a balloon and now he was a lucky dog. No. He was a dog called Lucky. He was Master Zack's dog now. Zack lived in a trailer/caravan in the carnival's parking lot. Chad yawned. He had spent the night at his master's feet - literally at the foot of Zack's narrow bed. Chad leapt off the bed and trotted toward the scent and sound of sizzling eggs and sausage.
Zack was standing in front of the narrow white trailer stove frying up some breakfast. He was wearing boxer shorts and a tank top.
Chad sat at his feet looking up expectantly.
"Oh, you're hungry, Lucky?" Zack asked looking down at his new dog. "Sorry, I don't got no dog food for you. Here's a raw sausage link, but don't expect this every day." He fed Lucky a raw sausage link.
Speaking casually, he said, "I already phoned your bro about training you, Lucky."
Chad's ears perked up. He looked up from the half eaten raw sausage at Zack.
"I mentioned that Chad referred me. He got real friendly, asked if I wanted the Special training package? I asked what I get for that and how much it costs. You didn't tell me that in addition to security dogs, he trains cock hounds. So I signed you up for both. You can earn your keep as a watch dog and cock hound."
Lucky whined and ran back to Zack's bedroom, and hid under the bed. Zack laughed at Chad retreating with his tail between his legs
