Prompt:
Naoki knew very well it was important to always stay clean so he was ready to go to dog shows almost every week, something he always enjoyed. But one day he was out playing in the backgarden, and suddenly saw something that was just too interesting, it was a big mud puddle. He knew his owner would get sad and he did know they had a show that day, but the brown water looked so inviting.

First he dipped a paw in to the water to test it, and it was nice and cool against the summer heat. He decided then and there to plop down in the mud puddle, and jump around excitedly. He was having the time of his life and the mud stuck to his fur. He heard his owner walk out, and sat down and looked up at her, hoping they wouldn't get mad.

Relief flooded Naoki because their human didn't look mad, but started laughing at the sight of her muddy dog. She took out her phone, called someone briefly, and then walked outside to join him in the puddle, and they played until late in the evening and it was the best day in Naoki's life. And after that day his human and he toned down on the shows and spent a lot of time playing in mud puddles every chance they got, and Naoki really enjoyed this new life of less shows and more play time in the mud with his human.

Name: MSK Waft Of Temptation ‘Azeria’
Gender: female
Name Meaning: [optional]
Prompt:

Azeria sat quietly in the lush green park, a sanctuary where she had always been well-behaved. She had never once strayed beyond the gates that marked its boundaries. Azeria was always well-behaved and took pride in never stepping beyond the park gates. But today was different as a sound tugged at her heart; it was a cry laced with sadness, and Azeria felt an undeniable pull towards it. She knew she wasn’t allowed past the gates the that cry was too tempting to pass up.

Soon she was standing at the park entrance staring at the city beyond, a small whine escaped her lips as she wrestled with her instincts. Bravely she stepped past the gates driven by compassion she was determined to find that noise.

As she padded through the bustling city streets, the enticing smells of food and people wafted around her. Yet Azeria remained focused on that sound of sadness, determined to find its source. The cries grew louder as she navigated through crowded sidewalks and busy intersections until finally, she spotted a small two-legged child sitting on the footpath. The child was alone, tears streaming down their cheeks as they looked around in distress. “Where are your bigger two legs?” Azeria thought anxiously as she scanned the area for any sign of adults nearby but found none. Without hesitation, she approached and gently nosed her face into the child's palm.

The child stopped crying immediately, their wide eyes meeting hers with surprise before breaking into a smile as they wrapped their arms around Azeria's neck. In that instant, something shifted within Azeria; she felt protective of this little being who seemed so lost in a world filled with towering giants. When passersby dared to approach them too closely, she growled softly but firmly; a warning that this child was under her care now.

As time passed and shadows lengthened with the setting sun, two humans came rushing towards them; faces filled with relief and joy as they called out to their little one. "There you are!" they exclaimed as their child leapt up in delight.

The humans knelt beside Azeria and praised her for being brave while scratching behind her ears affectionately. Her tail wagged furiously in response to their warm words; happiness swelled within her chest even though a pang of disloyalty flickered briefly in her mind—what would her handlers say?

Name: Dogo
Gender: Male
Name Meaning: Despite sounding a lot like a misspelled word "dog", Dogo means "Small" in Swahili!
Prompt: Dogo have broken the greatest and strictest taboo of all canines, and ate the forbidden fruit called "Chocolate". He knows very well he's not supposed to do that, and the humans freak out whenever a small bit of this sweet drops down to the floor where he can accidentally grab it... but he just couldnt pass by the chance when he saw a half of a chocolate bar behind the sofa. Must have been dropped there by a forgetful yonger member of the two-legged pack who then failed to get the news of it to the adults... it happened in an instant, the chocolate disappeared in his mouth before he could stop himself from breaking the law. Now he's got an itchy rash on his back that he's VERY carefully hiding from his humans, so they dont take him to a vet. Must remain calm and stay collected, do not scratch... DONT... Oh nooo they noticed... vet visit it is. He'll make a very fat mark "do not eat chocolate" in his mind as he'll look at that allergy medicine's needle going his way, be sure of that - that mark will stick for a while.

Prompt: (Word count - 434)

Cam was a three-year-old beaumont collie with a heart full of sunshine and a head full of mischief. He was usually well-behaved, the kind of dog who’d tilt his head at commands, sit patiently for treats, and greet guests with tail wags that could power a small wind turbine. But Cam had one known weakness: the living room couch.

It was off-limits. Very clearly, very repeatedly, off-limits.

But one rainy Tuesday afternoon, something changed.

His humans had left for work like usual, giving him a chew toy, a peanut butter Kong, and the standard “Be good, Cam” on the way out. He watched them leave with a soft whine, then curled up on the rug. But then — thunder. A low, grumbling roar that shook the windows and rumbled through the house like a distant monster waking up.

Cam hated thunder.

At first, he paced. Then he barked a few warning woofs at the storm, just in case it was listening. But the sky kept growling, louder now. He needed comfort. He looked around — his toy was no help. The crate felt too small. Then he saw it: the couch.

The plush, forbidden throne of softness.

Cam hesitated. He knew. Oh, he knew. His ears drooped, and he gave one last nervous glance at the front door, as if expecting his humans to pop in and say “Ah-ha!” But they didn’t.

The first jump was tentative. The cushions gave under his paws like clouds. The second jump, onto the backrest, was full-on rebellion. Cam spun a circle, nestling into the cosiest, highest point, as thunder boomed overhead.

Then something inside him snapped. Maybe it was the static in the air, maybe it was stress, or maybe it was just the sheer joy of the forbidden — but Cam lost it. Pillows flew. Cushion stuffing exploded into the air like popcorn. He dug, shredded, tossed, and spun in a frenzy of pure, storm-fuelled defiance.

By the time his humans got home, the couch looked like a crime scene. Fluff on every surface. Springs exposed like ribs. Cam sat proudly in the wreckage, tail thumping, brown heart melting eyes wide and innocent as if to say, “It was self-defence!”

They couldn’t even be mad for long. He hadn’t done it for fun (well, not only for fun). The storm had gotten to him, and in his dog-logic, the couch was the safest, softest stronghold against the thunderous apocalypse outside.

Still, Cam got a stern talking-to. And a new designated thunder buddy blanket — far from the couch.

Which he only tore up a little...

Name Meaning: Honestly "Fade Away" made me think of "Sail Away" and i got the song by the Styx stuck in my head so bam, name.
Prompt:
His humans had had BBQ last night. Of course they'd shared some small pieces with him but he knew some of it ended up in their tall, plastic box for some reason.

It was a waste.

That tall plastic box, however, was not only off-limits, but also outside of the fence which he wasn't supposed to get out of.

He tried not to think about it but the wind was blowing just right that day, and his humans were inside so...

Styx slunk over to a hole near the back of the fence that he saw a fox dig out once. With some careful dirt moving, he was able to wiggle under too.

Styx shook himself off, tail wagging as he trotted over to the bin. He stood up on his hind legs and gave it a push, toppling it over easily. The top popped open and Styx eagerly dove inside, the delicious BBQ remains right on top.

Jackpot.

Of course their humans heard the sound but by the time they made it outside there was BBQ sauce all over his fur. His tail was wagging the whole way inside as they scolded him. He wouldn't do it again for a while (probably) but man, was it worth it.

Prompt:

Sirius is normally a very good boy, however he has a very
big weakness... Food! Especially food that he knows he
shouldn't have. Which is why he knew he shouldn't steal
the freshly cooked chicken that was left on the table as
his owners had left outside... But it smelled so good! He
sat staring at the delicious meal, chin resting on the edge
of the table, drool dripping as he licked his lips. The
longer his owners were outside, the more he struggled to
control his urges, and he eventually gave in, hopping up
on the table and digging into the delicious bird! He had
never had something so tasty in his while life! He knew he
was missing out with his humans meals, how could they
not share with him besides the occasional scrap that fell
to the floor? He was about halfway through the chicken
when one of his humans came in, and he wasn't about to
give up his new meal now! He quickly darted out the door,
dodging hands and ignoring shouts as he ran off to finish
his meal in peace! He knew he would be in trouble when
he came back, but it was the humans fault for leaving such
a delectable meal unattended locked in a room with a
hungry pup!
