Maria was shocked when the dog jumped into the carriage all of a sudden for she did not expect it at all. At first she had no clue at what to do at first but once he nuzzled her she reached he hand out and stared to pet him and smiled. "For a dog that is suppose to be scary you are just a softy also." She said with a smile and scratched behind his ears a little thinking he was a cute dog. Maria had always felt more centent with animals but then again she believed they were good listeners when she talked to them. When they finally stopped for camp and was told that she could do what she wanted and she walked over to a tree and saw a baby bird on the ground and carefully picked it up and looked up in the tree to see if there was a best up there that it might have fallen out of and soon spotted. She reached for a branch to grab onto so she could climb up and put the baby bird back in it's nest.
