Woolly's people were farmers of a different kind — the Coast Salish raised them for their fleece, shearing them every spring like sheep and weaving the wool into blankets warm enough for a chief. She never resented the shears. The blankets in the museums still hold her warmth. Some things don't fade.
She lets Duchess braid her coat and pretends it's a nuisance, but she sits very still for it. On cold nights the pack sleeps in a pile with Woolly at the center, and nobody has ever explained the arrangement. Nobody needs to.
Come spring, she'll ask the others to help her 'shed' the old year — a whole-pack grooming ceremony that ends in a blanket fort. It will become the universe's favorite holiday. The fort will be enormous.

The St. John’s water dog, the Talbot, the Hawaiian poi dog — real dogs, really gone. The pack keeps their bowls full anyway. Extinction, here, is just a longer walk.
