On a quiet spot of floor inside a softly lit room, Dog curls into a tight circle with tail covering her nose. Eyes closed and ears relaxed, she sleeps peacefully.

In the same room now washed with warm morning sunlight, Dog stretches forward, front legs extended and back arched. Fur ripples as she shakes once, curly tail lifted in a playful wag.
