Orchid Arwen

Pup Mentor: Chaffinch (assisted by Hemlock & Pêche)
Adolescence Mentor:
Pupsitter: Pete
Inborn Talents:
*From the same pack as Callum Arwen [hence having the same last name].
Orchid Arwen felt that he was almost ready to try a real hunt and begged Hemlock to let him. He listened and explained that no matter how talented a pup may be, everyone had to train until they were old enough to move on. In the lesson today, New Adopted Puppy Leaf and Orchid Arwen learned how strategy can be useful when hunting in a group and trying to chase a big prey animal like Chaffinch pretended to be. With group coordination and a perfectly timed call, Orchid Arwen was able to tackle the pretend elk to the ground. Chaffinch explained to Orchid Arwen how wet fur is not a good idea, especially in the winter. She demonstrated how to find rocks and dry patches to cross a creek or a river instead of swimming across it. Orchid Arwen made great progress in this lesson. So great that he heard once or twice that maybe, just maybe, he could rest a little. His ambition for becoming the best voice in the pack was so strong, though, that resting was not an option.
Notes: "He has the tenacity of a finisher." - Chaffinch
