Spewing puppies?
Treking through the paths at The Wildfowl Trust. Rocky's is anxious to get to the paperbark tree, to hug the tree, since some of his friends had told him, how soft as velvet the tree trunk was.
Suddenly his mother asks, "where is Rocky?" Rocky she shouts and Rocky suddenly appears, like out of nowhere.
His mother hugs him and looks at his face for scratches or cuts then spins him around. "Are you okay Rocky?" We thought you might be abducted by aliens, when we didn't see you.
They reach the pavilion and stop to have some refreshments. Rocky says he is not hungry. But after mom's persistent nagging, tries to eat a sandwich.
He retches violently and out of his stomach spews a fluffly little puppy.
"What's happening!" everyone exclaims. "That is not our Rocky". Mom cries out and raises her arms upward in anguish.
