As soon that they left Dinky and Boomer, Tod and Lily spotted a butterfly that flew out of a grass and it flew in front of Tod.

Tod looked at it with curiosity before he chased around and play with it.

Lily smiled at this before she walked toward the hunter's fence and sat beside before she opened her sketch book and started sketching.

Meanwhile over at Amos Slade's home, old Chief and Copper who's now a puppy were drinking water from their bowl.

Copper popped his head up and started sniffing the air.

This scent is a new sent for him that he started to follow the scent.

Chief saw Copper sniffing the air.

"Hey, there, Copper", said the old dog. "Whatcha sniffing at?"

Copper continued sniffing as he replied, "Something...I've never smell before, Chief."

"Huh, let me see", Chief said before he walked beside the hound puppy.

He sniffed the air and then inhaled the air.

"Oh, chucks, that's easy", Chief said to Copper. "The master is just cooking grits and fatback. You oughta know that".

Resisting and knowing this scent is different, Copper shook his head.

"Mm-mmm. That's not what I smell", he said. "I don't know, Chief. It's something else".

Chief chuckled in amusement as he went into his barrel for a rest.

"Sonny, you've got a lot of learning to do about the sniffing and the smelling, heh", he said and he saw Copper starting to wander off as he continued sniffing the scent. "Hey, where are you going?"

Copper turned to Chief. "I wanna find out what that smell is".

"Okay, Copper, but the master ain't going to like you wandering off", Chief warned Copper who smile in an assure way.

"I won't get lost, Chief", Copper said. "I can smell on my way back".

Chief watched Copper wandering off into a woods when the scent is leading him to as he sniffing the ground.

The old dog lied down on a ground as he said to himself. "Heh, can't tell he's young, whippersnapper, anything".

Meanwhile in a woods, Tod continued playing with the butterfly and followed it into a log before he climbed over it while Lily stayed at her spot by the fence sketching Tod playing with the butterfly in her sketchbook .

Lily thought she heard something sniffing as she looked up from her artwork and saw a hound puppy sniffing the ground and passed under the fence. "Hmm?"

Copper sniffed his way toward Lily and as he was close to her, he sniffed her dress, climbed onto her lab and sniffed her chest and at her face before he looked up at her.

"Hello there, little one", Lily greeted the hound puppy with a smile as she picked him up. "Where did you come from? My name is Lily".

Copper smiled cutely at the human girl and licked her on her cheek when made her giggle.

Just as Lily put him down, Copper began to sniff the scent again and followed it into the woods.

Lily tilted her head wondering what the puppy is sniffing his way to and followed him into the woods.

Copper continued sniffing the ground as he walked into a log where Tod is on top of it.

Tod heard something sniffing underneath him and placed his ear onto a hold before a nose was poking up from it which made Tod jump and sniffed the nose.
