knocking on heavens door - sonia

Sonia's body sagged slightly as she made her way along the field. The field was caked with snow and it came up to her shoulders almost. The city had gotten a good foot or so of the white stuff and now, the cold temperatures made it difficult for it to melt.

her lower jaw dropped, salmon pink tongue lolling out and resting over her bottom canines as she panted. each time she exhaled little puffs of steam rose from her nostrils.

the basque shepherd fae's tail wagged behind her like a banner as her long legs carried her forward. as she neared the small stream, she spied a male crouched down beside it, lapping up some water. come to think of it, she was rather parched herself and cautiously made her way closer, making sure that she kept close to the male, but not overly close. she crouched down and lapped up the water too, sighing in delight as the cold liquid drenched her dry throat. Sonia kept her ears pricked in case the male was aggressive or anything. she would be ready in case he was.

Sonia smiled at the male.

"Hi." she said cheerfully as her tail slowly wagged. "Nothing much just wanna explore. What about you? My names Sonia...what's your name?"

She tilted her head to the side curiously and waited for him to respond.

she'd not met many new dogs lately so she was always hoping for a new chance to meet someone and possibly come away with a friend or so. So far she hadn't had much luck in that department. The basque shepherd female's eyes flicked over the male before her. he seemed healthy even for a stray...which was saying something. most dogs were unhealthy and malnutritioned. it was sad, but that was the way it was on the streets without the humans here to help and lend a hand with care.

She preferred it that way though. no one to answer to nothing. it was best for her.

"You belong to any pack?" she asked.
