The smell of food drifted into Ava's nose, making her want to run over there with her team. But she knew not to quit her laps when she told herself that she would run a certain number. Ava ran faster than before, pushing herself to be done faster. As she slowed at the last corner, she noticed a few new dogs. She didn't talk to them for she was too hungry to talk. She trotted to her bowl, eating her food slower than everyone else yet still pretty fast. Once she was finished, she shook her fur to clear a bit of the snow caught in her fur. She sat on her haunches and looked around, wondering what to do next.

River

.

"It's fine accidents happen it's not your fault anyway...my name is River" +She smiles as she sits up to meet the female's eyes nodding her head in respect before she looked the female over checking if she had any injurys+ "Are you ok? any injuries? and I don't know the musher hasn't said"

Adria stood up after the musher had passed. She thought for a second, mulling things over in her head. Our next race is quite soon... and I don't want the other racers to think we are no compition. I need to get started right away! I don't even know where my dogs will run yet! Adria sighed and unlocked the gate, calling for the dogs to line up. They did so surprisingly, only a bit of yelping and barking.
"Ok guys, I first need to find my team dogs, so we will be testing for speed!" Adria exclaimed,"Stay right here and I will grab my supplies!"

River

+She listened to the musher and looked around at her competition before she looked back at she now knows as siren+ "Good luck maybe we can be next to each other...and yeah ill be fine if I am runing beside you" +She giggles+

Jake

+He signs not wainting to be racing the others but he knew he was fast so e slowly walked up the front his tail tucked not to show he was trying to be dominate towards the others only trying to get passed+ "You can do this jake"

Adria came back with some hunks of wood and a timer. She placed the wood in a odd shape, and stood at the "end" of the course with a timer. She moved her hair to behind her, and called to the dogs saying,"Ok pups, only about 6 of you will be team dogs- the ones in the middle- you guys are fast and agile, the base of the team, and your speed will hopefully help us beat the other mushers. Now I have set up a obstacle course, you start at the one closest to you, take a right, circle that one over their, take a left, zig-zag through there, and do some fancy-foot-work over here. We will run this test 3 times, and the top 6 fastest dogs will get that position." Adria waiting for the words to settle in, feeling excited.

Ava looked at Adria. "This will be exciting." She whispered to herself. "Hmm. I wonder where I'll be put. I am pretty fast although I haven't seen the others run yet. Maybe Swing or Team. I'm not big enough to be wheel and not...experienced enough to be a leader." She sighed, looking around at the others.

Siren/2yrs/F/Team dog/Alaskan malumute~ M:River

Siren lined up wit the rest of the dogs and the heard River. She said "Yeah." Giggling but she wanted outside. She looks around at the other but stays. Siren heard this and barked which she was saying "Me first!"

Celestial/5 yrs/Team dog/F/Husky~M: Ref.Luna,Ref.Siren,Avalanche

Celestial heard the musher and went to line up. She didn't know anyone expect for Luna and Celestial. Siren was from one of her other team mates litter in the previous team. She landed right next to a strange dog(Avalanche). She just listen to the musher and while she did she said "Hi im celestial." She was talkiong to the wolf next to her (Ava).
