Buster

----You're quite surprised when Buster brings you a gift. They say that it's a reminder of your achievements and the respect they hold for you. They don't leave until you confirm that their choice is perfect.
----Buster asks if you're proud to have them as a member of your pack. You assure them that you are; they are invaluable!
----Buster stares into your eyes, asking if they can help you with anything today. It seems more important to them than anything else. You don't need an extra paw at the moment but it's good to know that there are pack members who are always ready to help.

• During the lesson: Buster learned how to use the environment to his advantage, to successfully muffle all the sounds he made. Buster and his littermates were stalking each other, changing their roles from time to time.

• During the lesson: Today, Kanga invented several poses and expressions and Buster had to guess what they meant. He struggled on some of them, but by the end he had gotten better and Kanga was impressed with how quickly he learned.

(Gene approaches Buster and presses his ear tightly into his fur. He mumbles something under his breath before plucking a single hair strand directly from the coat. He turns his back to you and fumbles around with it and a series of objects. After a short period, he offers a small smile. "Despite the current, ahem, difference, Buster is completely clear! Not a carrier for anything at all."}
