"I don't think I'm going to like this," the big boy answers with a shaking voice. "It's really scary!" "Oh, come one, you big baby," the little girl responds, "don't be such a spoil sport! Just chill out and take in this great adventure. It's already a lot of fun, and we're just getting started."

"Ya' think it'll really be okay?" the big boy asks. “"Aren't you going to miss all our brothers and sisters?""Nope, I'm not going to miss them at all," she responds, "besides that's just five less mouths in the food bowl, remember. It'll just be me and...and...and sometimes you... in the food bowl. Okay?" "Yeah, I guess so," the big boy responds, "hey, I gotta go pee!"

"Not now, stupid," the little girl snaps, "can't you hold it until we get to our new home? I don't want you to show these new people that we aren't civilized and can't hold it!" "Now!" "No! I gotta go now!" he squeaks with desperation.

"Stupid boy!" the little girl retorts, "Don't you pee on this new person! She might not want either of us if you do! You better hold it! Remember the three legged dog? You won't even be able to get to the food bowl if you pee on her! I promise!"

"I can't hold it anymore," the big boy says desperately, "I can't! Look, she's putting me down on the ground. Ah, what a relief! See, I told ya' I had to go, and this new person let me.'”

"Yeah, this grump person let me down so I could go, too," the little girl snaps. "See, they know what little puppies need. They picked me, so they're not stupid!" Not like someone else I know, she thinks to herself.

"Look at that," the big boy exclaims, "something on the side of this big yellow thing moved and...and...and the grump is putting us inside with the new person. We're sitting in the new person's lap. I don't think I'm going to like this."

"The big yellow thing is how we're going to get to our new home," the little girl exclaims loudly, "so just chill out, relax a little, and have fun." "Uh-oh, we're moving! Everything's shaking." The big boy exclaims, "I don't like this! My tummy feels funny! Look at my tongue! It's dripping and I can't stop it! What's happening to me, sis? I don't feel well at all."

"Well, don't drip on the new person," the little girl snaps at him, "She might decide to take us back to the pen and leave us there. Just tell your tummy to remember the story of how the three legged dog could never get to the food bowl."

"I can't help it," the big boy sighs, "I'm gonna' be sick! I'm gonna' throw up!" "Don't you dare," the little girl yells at him, "I don't want to go back, and everyone knows people don't let puppies throw up on them. Tell your tummy the story about the three legged dog!"

"I can't...," "the big boy says as he throws up all over the new person, "it's the moving and shaking! My tummy can't take it. Oh no, here comes some more!" "You stupid boy," the little girl gasps, "look at what you're doing! You're throwing up all your breakfast on her, and she's trying to catch it with her hand, but you were such a glutton this morning. Man, you're disgusting! You better not get any of that on me! Remember the three legged dog? I hope they turn around and take you back to the pen. Pretty eyes my rear end! You're just such a wimp!"

"I can't help it," the big boy whimpers, "all this moving and shaking is upsetting my tummy. Hey I think we're stopping! My tummy feels better already!" "Yeah, whatever," the little girl sighs, "just don't get any of that disgusting throw up on me. Wow, look at all the big buildings. This area between the buildings is sure bigger than the old pen, but it's still not much room for us to play in, is it? Wait a minute, what is this? The board fence just opened up and, oh my goodness! Just look at all the room we're going to have to run and play in. Hey, big dummy, do you think this is all for us? I can't believe this, man! Look down there! Just look! There's a big bowl of water for us and then there's a huge bowl of water a little further. Can you believe this? Two food bowls would just make it perfect, huh? Hey, I'll beat ya' to the water bowl.'”

"I can beat you any day of the week," the big boy says as he takes off down the hill to the big water bowl, "hey, sis, something's happening to me. My rear legs are catching up to my front legs. Oops, I'm tumbling down the hill. This is fun! I think I'm going to like this new place after all." "You just can't control the back half of your body, can ya' bro?" the little girl says sarcastically, "you sure looked funny when
