Captains Log. Star Date: 1.
AARCS fosters from the ASNTF clinic are picked up. Puppies have just been put in the yard. Crate doors have been removed but there is no movement. Car is being parked and puppies are being left in the yard. There is still no sign of movement upon return. Doors are closed and puppies are moved inside.
Puppy crates are put in an xpen and lids removed. Puppies cower in corner together. Chicken and quiet talk are not enough to break the huddle. After backing up and tossing a few pieces of chicken in, the two skinny pups each take a bite.

The largest and fluffiest is the male. He is Cosmic. Yes we know that it is an adjective. He is mostly black but looks slightly lighter. The skinniest is female. Her ribs are showing. She is most curious but is cautious. She will peek up to look but not go anywhere. She is jet black with a tiny streak of white on her chest. The other female is black and has a brown scruff neck and head and a white dot on her chest. She is more bold and first to explore the chicken streaming into the pen. The girls are Nova and Stardust. Which shall be which? After further study lends to the jet black one being Nova, and the brown and black pup being Stardust.
