Merlin woke up to sounds of excited pups and falls. Recognizing the voices to be Lupin, Dove, and Emmy, he perked his ears up and easily opened his cage door. “Forget about someone?” He smiled as he pranced over to the group and hid a small pout.
(Can we still use actions like “smiled”?)
"We were just gonna go get you!" Lupin headbutted Merlin's shoulder. "Your cage is so far away!"
“True, true. Especially for a small pup like you.” He teased. “So…how’s life?” He asked everyone, drawing out the words.
"Still stuck in this place, like I have been for as long as I can remember. But maybe we'll get adopted today! Who knows? Humans like puppies, so we have a fair chance."
// Do people regularly come or have they not showed in a long time?
(Well, they've obviously come in the past three months considering that's how old Lupin is lol)
(True, alrighty. )
“Yea.” Merlin said, feigning excitement. The truth was, less and less people were coming and even when they did they hardly ever actually adopted.
(Is that okay? I can change it if you want.)
Lupin wagged his tail and got distracted by another butterfly, hopping towards it.
(It's good)
"We should probably get back into our cages before they come in to feed us." said Dove.
"Hmm? Oh, yeah. Probably. See you in a minute!" Lupin trotted off to his cage and closed the door.
Dove quickly closed the door to her little cage and watched as a few workers came in with bags full of dog food.
The workers filled up the dog bowls fairly quickly and then left. Lupin began eating the food. It was dry and had little taste, but it was all he had ever had. It was food.
(I am so down to join this if it's still open, lol)
(Yes plz do)
(Gimme a sec I'll fill out the template. Imma be a small pupper)
Dove's bowl was impossible tiny and within moments it was empty of its contents - she couldn't wait till they considered her grownup enough for the big kennels.

The doors opened again, a worker coming in with a new pup. She seemed quite small in the human's arms as they tossed the poor pup into one of the cages. She let out a soft whine at the impact and watched at the worker left.
Lupin looked up at the new arrival and broke out of his cage again as the worker left. He padded over to the other puppy. "Hello! What's your name?"
Dove opened her cage and padded over to where the new dog had been put - they didn't get new arrivals very often. The last new puppy was Lupin and that was ages ago.
"Hi, I'm Dove." said Dove as she walked over to the cute little pupper.
Nala was huddled at the back of the small cage until she heard the voices. They were pups like her! Well they didn't look like her, but that didn't matter.
"I'm Nala… who are you?" she asked, getting closer to the barred door.
"My name's Lupin! It means… something… in some weird human language. I dunno, it's not that important." Lupin could remember when he was brought in. He was found on the side of the road, and only a month old when he was brought to this place.
