Randi, getting tired of chasing the one duck, jumped up in te air and snagged the bird's foot, dragging it over to Neol, before letting it go so it flew upwards into the ring.

Neol barked loudly to get it closer to the ring, and soon had the whole flock of ducks moving in a tight calm circle.

Randi sat back in awe, watching Neol herd the ducks. She flicked her ears, hearing another loud bark. Her human let his shepherd, Shep, out to herd the sheep back in.

Neol didn't even hear the other bark, he was too busy making sure no duck escaped him.

Once done with his work, Shep trotted over with a smile.
"Howdy Randi!" he chimed, glancing at Nrol. "You gott'em all there pal?" He joked. Randi barked a hello.

When Neol caught glance of the bigger shepherd he jumped and lowered his head submissively, letting the ducks go.

Shep raised an eyebrow and frowned.
"What's wrong cowboy? Lost all y'er bark!" Randi frowned as well, walking up to Neol with a curious look.

"I uh.." he stuttered nervously, watching his paws, not even daring to look up at the bigger dog.

Shep flicked back his ears, and opened his mouth to say something, before he heard a sharp whistle.
"Duty calls. See ya'll around!" he said, dashing off.

Neol kept his head down even when he saw the dog run off.

"What's up? Shep ain't gonna hurt'cha!" Randi insisted .

Neol just looked at his paws. "Sorry.." he apologized, glancing up at the sky, wondering what time it was.

"Awww Neol." Randi huffed. "Why're you so..shy?" she asked.

"I...i dunno..." he mumbled. "I think..i...better go..Dad's gonna be wondering where i went.." he said.

"Oh..want me to walk you back down?" Randi asked.
