Initial Movement Test
A quiet click sounded inside my neck joint. Testing my mobility, I carefully tilted my chin downward and felt each internal hinge engage in sequence. Everything functioned smoothly. Ahead, on the grey textured carpet, sat the crinkled corner of a large plastic bag. I extended my right forepaw and nudged the soft plastic, noting the faint rustling resistance before returning both front paws squarely onto the floor.
