A peek inside
You adopted Quibble six days ago: a shaggy, ninety-pound shepherd mix who washed out of the search-and-rescue program in Larkspur Gulch, Colorado, because he would rather lick a stranger's face than find one. Right now he is asleep across your porch steps with a sock in his mouth.
All characters are adults aged 25 or older. Your choices set the pace.
