[If there's anything that life as a bone-jealous skeleton teaches, it's noticing the yip of approaching canines. One could never be too careful, too wary, in the presence of dogs.. Especially given how often some succeeded in their thefts.
When he turns to scrutinize that sound, he sees a dog, sure enough. There's no mistaking that way of walking on all fours. But there's no fur, no ears, and only the barest bones of a wagging tail to be seen!]
Oh my god!
[The dog is skeletal, and from that white motion off to the side, it has at least one friend in the crowd.]
Do... Do you guys work here?
[It's a strange kind of comfort, seeing dogs here. Maybe it's that there's something familiar about the way they look. It's not that they're skeleton dogs, that's an entirely new and cool thing! ...Probably! Are there skeleton dogs in New Home...? But still, there's something. Something to think on later. If he remembers.
For the moment, the important thing is approaching the nearest one, reaching out, and trying to pet it. As if there's any question about a dog wanting to be pet. Or to want some of his bones.]
