In a bright and bustling neighborhood, Coco stood at the front door, gripping a red leash.

Tails, her fluffy puppy, wagged excitedly. He had never been on a walk with just Coco.

Coco clicked the leash onto Tails's collar. She whispered, 'We can do this, together.'

They stepped outside. The sunlight was warm, and the breeze tousled Coco’s hair as they began.

At the end of the driveway, Coco hesitated. The outside world seemed big. But Tails looked up, eager.

With a gentle tug on the leash, Coco and Tails ventured down the sidewalk, shoulder to paw.

Neighbors waved from their gardens, 'Look at you two go!' Coco smiled and waved back.

Tails led her to the park where children played and kites danced in the sky.

Coco found a quiet path, lined with flowers, perfect for a peaceful walk with her pup.

Suddenly, a squirrel dashed across the path! Tails pulled, but Coco held fast.

Coco bent down, reassuring Tails with a stroke along his back. 'Good boy,' she said, firmly.

With the sun now setting, they headed home. Coco held the leash loosely, a sense of pride growing.

As they reached the front door, Coco’s mother greeted them. 'You both did wonderfully,' she beamed.

That night, Coco fell asleep with a smile. In dreams, she and Tails explored worlds, side by side.
