Prompt: (A)
Magnus and Baretta are the perfect team with a balance of strength and compassion. Magnus teaches their pups to be strong, ambitious, and to step out of their comfort zone. He encourages them to challenge themselves and to set goals, as well as show them how important it is to be disciplined and consistent. Through his guidance, the pups were able to gain self confidence and fortitude. Meanwhile, Baretta takes the more nurturing approach by showering their puppies with warmth and kindness. She instilled in them that love isn't a weakness, but a strength in itself. Baretta always ensured that her pups felt safe, loved, and supported no matter what. She taught them patience, empathy, and trust. Together, they raised their puppies to have core values, courage, and independence.

Wish Upon A Star: spooky surprise (Sleeping Kitty Kaloula) and all edits from Lotus
Prompt: A

Kitkat is a loner and prefer to keep to himself, and if he does want company, he spend time with the farm cats, he's actually more of a feral collie and prefers to stay away from humans too. Lotus on the other hand is very outgoing and love to get attention. One day when Kitkat is out on the fields with the cats he hear whimping. He goes to check it out and finds Lotus looking nervous.

"What's wrong?" Kitkat asks

Lotus looks at him startled because she didn't hear him come over to her.

"I'm lost and I can't find my way back to the farm" she says and looks very scared.

"I can show you how to get back, if you'd like?" Kitkat replies.

Lotus takes him up on the offer and follows him back home to the farm. He turns around to go back out to the field. Lotus just looks after him as he goes. A few days later the same thing happens, Lotus gets lost, and can't find her way back home. Kitkat is nearby and senses her distress. He goes up to her, and offer to help her learn where everything is so she wont get lost anymore.

As the weeks go Lotus grows more confident and actually love how free Kitkat is. She also slowly falls in love with him. Kitkat is more reluctant but he also slowly falls in love with her. One evening they're out on a meadow in the forest near the farm and Lotus decides to tell him how she feels.

"Kitkat, will you let me stay with you? I don't wanna go back to the farm anymore" she ask shyly.

"Of course you can stay" Kitkat replies softly.

"Thank you. I love you" Lotus says and touches her nose to his.

"I love you too" he replies and looks fondly at her.

As soon as they both said it the night sky lit up with many shooting stars and they both know this is where they belong, together in the forest. They where destined to meet.

Wish Upon A Star: kviky & at+as
Prompt: Prompt A

It's no secret that Sansa is royalty on the Storm Cloud ranch. Or at least, that's how she demands to be treated, even going so far as to call herself a "princess". For the most part, the other collies usually ignored her requests, or responded sarcastically. But then she met Hadwin, the collie who would become her prince...

It was a fine summer day and he had just arrived on the ranch, being the newest addition to the family. As was the custom, the more outgoing of them swarmed him, introducing themselves, offering tours, asking an endless barrage of question in too quick of a succession to be answered properly...the usual.

"Excuse me, princess coming through!" Sansa exclaimed as she tried to push her way through the mob. They barely seemed to hear her however and instead she got roughly pushed to the side by excited, prancing bodies and then smacked in the face by a vigorously wagging tail.

"Ooh! How rude." Sansa let out a huff of indignation.

"Now, now." An unfamiliar voice tsked tsked from somewhere within the mob. "That is not how you treat a lady."

The crowd parted and the voice belonging to the stranger revealed itself - it was the new arrival and...oh, my. Was he handsome.

"Hadwin," the newcomer introduced himself, bowing his head slightly. "And what might your name be, my beautiful lady?"

"S-Sansa," she stammered.

"A lovely name for such a lovely lady. Did I hear you mention you were a princess?"

"Y-yes..." Sansa's voice was too quiet and uncertain for her own liking and so she cleared her throat and tried again, this time standing straight and proud with her head held higher. "I mean, yes. Yes I am. Though most everyone around here usually just rolls their eyes when I say that..."

"Well I for one know a real princess when I see one." Hadwin winked and Sansa couldn't stop her tail from wagging. No one had ever complimented her like this before.

"And, since no one else seems willing," he continued, "how would you feel if I promised to give you the respect you truly deserve? I would be your prince." He bowed his head again, this time much more deeply, putting his front leg into it as well, almost as if in a half-playbow.

Sansa giggled, giddy with excitement and happiness. She reached out with one paw and touched his. "I would love that, my prince."

And from then on, the two lovebirds, as they would very quickly become, would spend almost every minute with one another. And despite the fact that there were now two "royals" on the ranch, most collies still found themselves rolling their eyes at them. But Sansa and Hadwin didn't care, all that mattered was that they had each other - a princess and her prince.

Title Program Perks: n/a
Would you prefer puppy sweaters? Yes, stars themed
Mutation Rolls? Yes to everything besides bobtail
Impairment Rolls (if applicable)? No

Wish Upon A Star: lclc and Hsh
Prompt: A

Nihil and Bunny are the definition of 'opposites attract' both in looks and in personality!

Nihil is a bit of a brooding type, solemn, moody and quite serious. He definitely cracks out of his shell when he gets to know you and has a great sense of humor and is very loving and loyal, bit it is really rare for him to get to know someone that well.

Bunny is an open book. Everyone she meets is a friend! She loves to talk to anyone and everyone, about quite literally anything. She is very attentive and a great listener, and loves learning new things. She's also very passionate, and compassionate. She loves her friends and acquaintances, but has always wanted to establish a great, unbreakable bond of love with someone.

Somehow, they found love in one another, and they have never looked back.

Nihil has completely opened up to Bunny and is snuggly and soft with her. If they're apart for some time, they both miss each other dearly but Nihil especially feels her absence. He gets mopey and starts pacing. When reunited, they wag their tails and play bow and either wrestle, or immediately find a comfy spot and lay down to snuggle. Their love has even brought out Bunny's protective side, and if Bunny senses a threat she will raise her hackles and snarl (very uncharacteristic!) and make herself as scary as possible to protect Nihil!

Wish Upon A Star: Spooky Surprise - Incense Urajiro and Casket's edits!
Prompt: B

If anyone were to ask him, Casket would act his confident self and boast about how he'll be the best father in the world. However, Dracaena could see through this brave façade...

"Is there anything you want to talk about Casket? Perhaps about the pup? I know I'm nervous" Dracaena had confronted him a few days beforehand. Casket hesitated for a second before plastering on his usual grin and laughing.
"Me? Nervous? Hahahaha never! I know it will be fine and I won't mess everything up or make them cry or step on their toes or..." He trailed off looking down for a moment.
"Honey?" Dracaena prompted, causing the larger dog to take a deep breath and look up. Dracaena's gaze softened as he saw the uncertainty in his eyes. He'd only seen this look a few times before, the fear of failure, of being imperfect. Casket always held such high standards for himself although he never showed it to anyone but Dracaena.
"It's going to be okay Casket, sure we're going to make mistakes, all parents do, but as long as we are sure we are making the right choices for our pup then we are in the right place. Plus we have a huge family ready to step in and help if we ever need it, you know that as much as I do" Dracaena nudged his love, "You'll also have me every step of the way, don't forget that."
"Yeah, of course, I'll never forget" Casket sheepish smile turned into a cheeky smirk as his tail started wagging mischievously, "I bet I'll find them the best stick" he bounded out the back door the moment the words left his mouth.
"Oh not another challenge, you know I'll win!" Dracaena chuckled, chasing after him.

~~~

"Oh Dracaena they're so beautiful" Casket choked out between sobs. The puppy had arrived a few hours ago and all Casket had only been able to cry, sob and exclaim praises to their new pup. Dracaena watched both his love and pup and his heart grew even more for the two, expanding until it felt like it could burst out his chest.
"I know my Love, they're perfect"

Prompt: prompt A

It was a glorious summer day, the sun beaming down warmly and the gentle breeze rustling the willow trees that lined the serene lake. A gentle breeze rustled the willow branches, their delicate leaves dancing in the air. A group of collies from two neighboring kennels had gathered for a joyful play date, their excitement palpable as they bounded across the lush, grassy field. Collies of all shapes and sizes bounded across the lush, emerald grass, their tails wagging excitedly. Some splashed into the cool waters of the lake, paddling and chasing after sticks thrown by their delighted owners. Others engaged in spirited games of chase, weaving between the reeds and willow trees in a blur of fur and laughter. Bowls of kibble and fresh water were plentiful, ensuring the energetic canines remained well-fed and hydrated as they reveled in the joy of playtime.

Rose’s POV
Rose basked in the warm sun, her fur glistening after a refreshing dip in the cool water. Feeling revitalized, she slowly stretched and ambled over to a few collies, engaging in a joyous conversation. Her concentration was soon broken as she spotted her handler holding a bright pink frisbee. Excited, she bounded up to them, her front paws tapping eagerly on the grass as she waited for the disc to be thrown. The frisbee glided through the air towards a willow tree, and Rose snapped her jaws, narrowly missing the catch. As the frisbee landed with a soft thud, she padded towards it, only to be startled by a pair of piercing orange eyes. Regaining her composure, she cheerfully greeted the stranger, "Hi, I'm Rose. Who are you?" The collie turned her head, letting out a gruff sigh as she heavily sat on the grass, ignoring her question. Rose picked up the frisbee and started to return to her handler, but not before glancing at the mysterious collie one last time, curiosity now running rampant in her mind. Throughout the day, Rose kept stealing glances towards the willow tree, working up the courage to speak to the collie again. There was something about her that intrigued her, something she hadn't felt before. As a tantalizing smell reached her nose, she spotted a bone that the handlers were handing out and trotted over, sitting patiently until she was greeted with the meaty treat. Glancing over the mysterious collie, Rose noticed that she didn’t come over to receive a bone. Deciding to be nice, Rose picked up the bone in her mouth and padded towards the willow tree. Her heartbeat quickened, and a nervous tingle coursed through her body, but something inside her urged her forward. Dropping the bone at the collie's paws, she circled the grass and softly laid down near her, Rose laid head between her paws, hoping to gain her trust and develop a friendship.

In her heart, Rose hoped that this encounter would blossom into something more, but she knew it was up to the gruff collie to decide. For now, she was content to bask in her presence, captivated by her piercing orange eyes and the mystery that surrounded her.

Wish Upon A Star: spooky surprise from both c:
Prompt: B

You would think that after having already had three litters of puppies, with most of them grown and out in the world doing their own thing, a fourth and final one would go by swiftly and with ease. So then, why am I running around like a headless chicken, trying to remember everything that needs to be done, in what order, and which things I’m absolutely not supposed to do under any circumstances?

But oh, it’s all so exciting! Watching those small bundles of joy being born, seeing which traits they inherit from us and which ones are entirely their own. And then watching them grow, seeing how their personalities develop, and discovering how much they take after each of us. Oh, and let’s not forget their individual interests and passions! Watching them find their place in life and live it to the fullest is the greatest pride and joy a parent can feel for their child.

But here I am, getting way ahead of myself. I need to focus on the tasks at hand... Shoot, I can’t even remember what those tasks are. And I can’t exactly go ask her again. She is the one doing practically everything on her own: from watching her body grow and change, dealing with pain and wild cravings, to having to put a pause on her dreams and goals. Oh, how I wish I could do more for her…

Anyway, enough about me. I accidentally looked too long in her direction, and now I can feel her giving me a look, silently reminding me of what it was I was supposed to do.

Oh, how much I adore her.

---

Her point of view

My love, you’re doing more than you realise. I know it feels like chaos right now, like everything is spiraling, but I see how hard you’re trying. The way you worry about every little detail shows just how much you care. I can’t help but smile when I see you running around, trying so hard to make everything perfect for me and our little ones.

It’s true, this journey is challenging, but having you by my side makes it so much easier. Your excitement is contagious, and it reminds me that every moment; every kick, every discomfort, every craving, is leading us closer to something beautiful. I don’t need you to do everything, just knowing you’re here, loving me, loving our pups, is more than enough.

You don’t need to remember everything, or get everything right. We’re in this together, and that means sharing the load, the love, and yes, even the forgetfulness. The look I give you isn’t one of frustration; it’s filled with love and gratitude. I see you, and I’m so grateful for you.

So, let’s take a deep breath together. We’ll figure it out, one step at a time. And as we do, remember that you’re doing an incredible job. I love you more than words can say.

Wish Upon A Star: Both collies' spookys!
Prompt: A
These two wouldn't say they have the best relationship. Instead of opposites attract, these two are actually too similar in key ways and so are pretty incompatible relationship-wise. Originally drawn together like magnets but unfortunately both of the same polarity. Like water and oil, or a match and tinder, they seem to set each other off. You never know what exactly is going to happen when these two get together, but you know it's going to be eventful.

This isn't to say they don't get along ever. They are actually quite fond of each other. When they first met, sparks flew, fireworks burst! It was exciting and passionate and quick moving! It was a red hot love. They matched each other's energy levels and understood where the other was coming from. They twirled about like two flames of the same fire. But unfortunately, they eventually burned each other out.

They hit the stage where every little thing set the other one off. Little bursts and sparks. Minor eruptions over small things. Both hot-headed and slow to forgive or forget. Insults and injuries weren't brushed under the rug. With pops and crackles, they danced around each other, letting off a steaming hiss. Like rival blazes, each burned brighter and higher, trying to outshine the other. In time, they pushed and pulled for so long, both ran out of tinder. Exhausted, the fervor began to die down.
Then came the surprise.

After they found out they were expecting puppies, the relationship shifted again. Their fire slowed to a smaller but steadier burn. Now they have a much better understanding of each other and themselves. They've learned what triggers the flares and how to avoid them. They've gained more respect for each other and patience for themselves. That isn't to say they don't still have flickers here and there, but they manage it in a much healthier way. The two have accepted that they're a little too similar and too explosive to stay in a relationship together long term.
That being said, they are very excited (and terrified) for the puppies. They've fully committed to making it the best puppyhood for their offspring before separating but remaining close friends.
