Wyatt PawWord Story
Hey there,
Stray dog Wyatt reporting from Pawsburg – the pet version of Survivor – gone from chillin’ like a villain to fetchin’ all around the sandy terrain. Facing frisbees and thunderstorms alike with the Park Band by my side. I’d wag my tail to tell ya more, but gotta chase adventure, and hopefully, a chicken roast. Catch ya on the tail side!
– Tailwagger Wyatt
Like the proverbial last piece of roasted chicken at a barbecue, there I was, Wyatt the Beagle, with a number of my dear fellow canines, arching onto an island as deserted as the park on a rainy day. Our destination: Pawsburg, land of unending adventures and of course, mouthwatering delicacies.
“Well isn’t this a grand opportunity to put my paws up and enjoy some downtime, away from the absurd bell peppers,” I mused, my tail wagging at the idea of indulging in my favourite pastime of doing absolutely nothing.
“Wyatt,” chimed in Dotty, a spot of concern dotting her countenance, “‘Fraid you’ve got it arseways. We’re here to compete, not lounge about like we’re at some hotel in Corgi Castle.”
She was correct of course. We weren’t just barreling down the fun highway to Doggy Delight or the Golden Gate Gardens. We were here to face challenges that would have unflappable Dalmatians whimpering and even the bravest of Labradors, like Ludo, cowering. Pawsburg wasn’t a vacation, it was ‘Survivor: Pet Island’.
Of all the places we could have ended up, we were chosen for Upper Black Bulldog Bay. Now I’ve seen some menacing spots in my lifetime – dark alleyways, my old vet’s clinic, but this…this was paradise turned inside out.
The first challenge was upon us – a game of Fetch this Frisbee, a favourite amongst the canine community. I deemed it utterly boring. Me, who had chased the spinning disk of joy since I was a pup, was expected to fetch it, but not keep it. But I wasn’t one to break the rules, I’d save that for the Bone Appetit later.
As the frisbee sailed through the sky, a ray of sunlight glinting off its surface, something within me whispered, ‘Go after it Wyatt, show them what you’re made of.’ And fetch I did. My paws carried me over the sandy terrain as I neared my target, undoubtedly securing my team’s win. My adrenaline was up and running, like me after a whiff of the neighborhood’s freshly cooked chicken.
Night was setting in, and while we could have been at the Dapper Dog Salon exchanging gossip and getting pampered, instead we huddled around a makeshift fire pit. Suddenly the rumbling began. A storm was afoot. My arch-nemesis, the undoing of my very being. Luco and Dotty sensed my discomfort.
“Fear not, Wyatt! We are the Park Band!” Ludo proclaimed, a sharp edge of determination in his voice, “No storm can scare us away.”
But it could scare me, I reckon. However, gazing at their determined faces, the raging storm seemed to lose a bit of its threatening roar. Bolstered by their radiating bravado, I murmured, “Bring it on, thunderstorm. You ain’t seen nothing yet.”
With challenges and thunderstorms galore, Pawsburg had turned from an elusive land of frolic into a survival playground overnight, but me, Wyatt the beagle, with my friends by my side, was ready to explore the unexpected, undeterred by the storm. Come what may, Pawsburg, we were here to stay! The game was on.
The End.
