So some info about how the shelter works (this will only be here for the testing period, in the final version this guide will not be here):
*line_break
The shelter works by the week and by the day.
*line_break
Week 1: Days 1, 3, 5, and 7 are behavior training days. Friendliness, playfulness, anything that is considered "pet" behavior falls under this category. Days 2, 4, and 6 are command training. 
*line_break
Week 2: Days 1, 3, 5, and 7 are command training days. Days 2, 4, and 6 are behavior training.
*line_break
Week 3: Days 1-3 are meetings with the first families, days 4-5 are adoption days, day 6 is behavior training, and day 7 is command training. Commands are given throughout the week as well, react accordingly. Days 4-7 are escape days.
*line_break
Week 4: Days 1-4 are meetings with the Police, Fire Department, and Rescue Team. Days 5-7 are adoption days. Day 6 is behavior training and day 7 is command training. Escape days are 5-7.
*line_break
Week 5: Days 1-5 are meetings and behavior checks for therapy and service dog work. Days 6 and 7 are adoption days and escape days.
*line_break
Week 6: Families and groups will do a final cruise through. Each family and member of a group will stop by the cage. If you react, they will mostly likely adopt you. Command and behavior training is finished this week, escape is possible on days 5 and 7.
*line_break
Week 7 is the final week. Either escape on the first day or leave for the special branch (this will end the game, as the special branch has not been started at all)
*line_break
*line_break
One day 1 of the week you will get to decide how you respond to the leash and being taken on a walk. This will also be how you act for the rest of that week.
*line_break
On day 1 of the week is also when you get to decide how to act to the volunteers in the shelter. What you decide then will be how you act for the rest of that week.
*line_break
On the first behavior training day you will decide how to react to behavior training. That is how you will act for the rest of that week.
*line_break
On each trick training day you will have four reactions, and you will be able to learn Sit in the first week. [b]It is highly recommended that even strays pay attention to command training, as it will be useful even for them.[/b]

Your first day in the shelter was terrifying. Humans would walk by your kennel and stare, dogs were barking all the time, and you were so terrified that the humans who wanted to take you on a walk let you be; they were probably afraid of scaring you more. They did however come clean up whenever you made dirt or a puddle.

The second morning however looked better. You woke up before most of the other dogs and looked around.
*line_break

A high roof over your head, about 20 cages in this room alone. The majority of these cages held one or two dogs, while a couple were empty. The room stank of humans and dogs, fear, and you could smell urine as well. In the cage to your left is the large scarred dog you saw earlier, still asleep. He's one of the few with no collar. To your right is a tiny little female with dark golden fur and silver on her muzzle.
*line_break
Across from you is a dog that makes you uneasy. Called Jury, he's small with a curled tail and a vicious gleam in his eyes. He looks like he'd attack you just for the heck of it. He insults any dog that appears friendly with humans, except for the puppies here. Them he leaves alone.

    You tilt your head. "Why did you stop?"

Or maybe want to understand. He sighs again and goes silent.

I'm eight years old, not a puppy anymore, and they weren't sure how to handle me." She pauses for a moment, lost in her thoughts. But then she shakes her head. "But none of them wanted to keep me, so they brought me here a few days before you showed up."

You're settled down in your bed when you hear a clanging noise. You look up in time to see a massive black dog, Pharaoh you think, shaking his head. His kennel-mate, a larger white and black hound, is snarling at him and it looks like he's angry. You think you see a bit of blood dripping from his teeth.

You don't know much about Pharaoh, mainly because he's too far away for you to talk really, but you know he's friendly and pretty playful despite his age. You stand up just as two male humans burst through the black door at the very end of the kennel-way and run to Pharaoh's cage.

"Oh dear. I think Aggie's finally lost it." You hear Kiki mutter and turn to her. She blinks sadly. "He's been here almost three weeks. No human wants him. Sometimes when a dog who wants a family badly enough is…..left out….well they go crazy."

You turn to watch and shudder. "I hope he doesn't hurt Pharaoh." You watch as they enter the kennel, a long shiny pole in front of them. You involuntarily shudder at the sight of it. One of the males grabs Pharaoh by the collar and takes him to an empty kennel next to Jury. Pharaoh looks terrified and you don't blame him. There's a small spot of blood on his cheek where the other dog, Aggie, bit him.

That creepy feeling grows when he licks his chops in a happy way.

With that done, the first male lets go and runs down the kennel-way, blood falling very freely. As he runs by your kennel, you see his arm is ripped open from elbow to his hand; the glint of bone was easily seen as well. You shudder. No matter what your thoughts are on humans, the thought of ripping one down to the bone is a bit much to dwell on right now.
*line_break
Every dog watches as Aggie is leashed and practically dragged out of the kennel and down past your kennel to a black door. It's rarely every opened according to the other dogs and you're somewhat curious.
*line_break
You immediately regret your curiosity as the door is opened. A terrible wave of fear, blood, and something dark rolls out in a hot wave. You whimper and cover your nose, and aren't able to watch as the door closes. As the door closes, you hear Aggie howling and barking as much as he can………then silence. You feel like the silence is worse somehow.
*line_break
You feel a paw touch you and turn to see Slash sticking his paw through the kennels side. He looks scared and sad, which you find strange. "I'm terribly sorry you had to see that pup."

Kiki nods, just within your vision. "That's not something that should even happen, let alone something a pup should see."

  #Ask what happened
    "What…..what happened to him?" You voice sounds loud in the still quiet room. Every dog turns to you; you can see the pity and fear in their eyes. Some of them probably didn't even know there was a puppy in there, while others are still in shock from what happened.
    *line_break
    Pharaoh grunts. "Well….he went mad." Every dog looks at him, including you. He licks his lips nervously. "I asked if he wanted to share the bed tonight, instead of taking turns on the floor. Then suddenly, he just snapped and tried to rip my throat out. I think….I think he's been here too long."
    *line_break
    Another dog, Hund, speaks up. A massive black and grey dog with a thick muzzle, he's the very picture of intimidation. "He got here the day before me and Gregory." His accent is strange, difficult for you to understand exactly, but you get the jist of it. "He….he had a bad home before he got here. They kept him in a kennel almost all the time." He pauses. "They must have thought he wasn't worth save-" He stops and looks at you, a pained and pitying look on his face.
    *line_break
    You whimper and Slash touches you again. "Enough Hund. Let's not scare them." He turns to to you. "Try to rest pup, I'm not sure if the humans will be doing anything but feeding us tonight."
    *line_break
    You nod and curl up in your bed. You give Slash a grateful look and he gives a small smile, surprising you. You sigh and try to rest.

She opens a few things and rummages around. Regardless of your past, you don't know the names for most of these things.

She puts the sharp thing away and comes over with a new small thing in her hand. It's round, about as long as her paw, and a bright light shines from one end and she gently opens your mouth.

You're too curious to react much, other than a growl a bit but she quickly finishes checking your mouth, does the same with your ears, checks all four paws, checks your eyes, then puts the light stick away.

    You play by yourself pretty much, but sometimes you pounce on a toy they toss around for you. You don't actually play with them per say, but you do play with a few toys they give you. The other dog rolls a ball to you a few times, which you knock back sometimes. They try to get you to play with a tug rope with them but you ignore that.

Back in your cage you stretch out and yawn. The whole room feels sluggish and the air feels heavy. You pant heavily and think about what to do. A human comes by, refilling food and water dishes. Most of the other dogs are laying down like you. A quiet hum of conversation buzzes about the room.

    You flick your ears to listen to the conversation going on around you. Jury is talking with some of the other dogs you knew were strays before coming here. You sit up and watch them after a few minutes.
    *line_break
    Jury sees you watching and glares for a second but continues talking. "Next week we need to escape. Not all at once if possible, but a couple dogs at a time. That way the humans won't notice as fast as last time."
    *line_break
    A small little ratty looking dog growls. "Last time we tried to escape they killed Thro and Conner. Do we really want to risk our lives again? A few of us were caught soon after, while some were caught just recent, including myself." She pauses.

      #Stay quiet, but listen
        You stay silent but listen.
        *line_break
        She grunts and continues. "There are also more of us that want to escape this time." She glares at Jury. "Plus last time we had you on the outside, with rats as messengers."
        *line_break
        Her kennel-mate, a massive black and white Sheepdog, grunts in agreement. "I suggest we just stop trying to escape."
        *line_break
        A course of barks of anger and murmurs of agreement follow her words. Jury stands up with a loud bark. "Enough! What we will do is escape a few dogs at a time." He looks around. "If we do it no more than two, or possibly three, dogs at a time, the humans will never notice. The mistake we made last time was six of us left all at once. That's how the humans found the hole."
        *line_break
        You tilt your head, curious. Jury looks over at you and speaks to the others. "That pup there might want to escape, there might be others. Their small enough still to fit through one of the old holes."
        *line_break
        A large black and tan dog growls. "But the old hole is gone!"
        *line_break
        Jury's silent for a moment, but when he speaks it's so quiet you almost can't hear him. "Not every hole was filled in. There's a big hole in the Big Yard, between the humans table spot and the outer wall. Even the largest dog here can fit through there; the humans never found it because it's in a very good hiding spot. A few dogs can escape next week during the adoption event."
        *line_break
        The first dog grunts. "What other ways are there of escaping though?"
        *choice
          #Listen more
            You lay closer to the cage door, wanting to hear this. Jury nods and continues. "Well there's the big hole by the tables, there's a set of rot-bins near the wall next to the Pup Yard, occasionally the humans leave the gate open and a couple dogs could leave that way." He pauses, thinking. "If someone gets adopted, they could try to escape from the humans. Oh! And there's a door near the end of this room that can be pushed open. But if someone leaves that way, they are much more likely to be caught. It's near the Black Door."
            *line_break
            Most of the dogs, including you, shudder at the thought of going near that door.
            *line_break
            Jury nods, thinking carefully. "During the adoption event I'll escape first. I'll take one or two other dogs with me." He looks around. "Then I'll find some rats and see if they can't bring messages to the rest of you inside. While on the outside, I'll look for weak points, other escape points, and try to see if there will be another event going on."
            *line_break
            The rest of the dogs murmur quietly when he finishes talking. Some of this sounds good, but now that you know there's a chance you could escape in different ways it has you thinking.
            *line_break
            You're thoughts are broken however when the female opens you cage. Jury seems glad you listened though.

      #"Why do you want to escape so badly?"
        Jury glares at you, a snarl on his face. "We want to escape because we do not want to be [i]pets[/i]." He spits the last word with more venom than you would imagine. "Dogs who are pets are not free, they are not true dogs. Humans keep them and hurt them; any human who acts like they care for you is [i]lying[/i]!" There's a cruel and malevolent gleam in his eyes.

It's well hidden, so I doubt the humans will ever find it. There's a set of rot-bins next to the wall in the pup yard; if someone is ig enough they could climb on top and jump over the wall."
