After a thorough examination, Addison whispered uncertainly, "Is this actually a puppy?" The small creature, though clearly frightened and alone, appeared healthy. It showed no serious wounds, except for a few scratches left by its fall into the pit. This initial assessment brought Addison a combination of relief and worry. Using gentle and skilled hands, he moved his fingers across the tiny body to examine for external injuries or fractured bones. The animal's heartbeat, detectable beneath his palm, was regular, which was encouraging. Despite the fall, there were no apparent cuts or clear signs of trauma. Its black fur, though slightly moist from the cave's dampness, was undamaged and showed no evidence of struggle.

However, something about the animal concerned Addison. Its remarkably peaceful behavior was puzzling. An injured puppy would typically react with sudden movements or whimpers, but this one remained motionless and quiet. Upon closer examination, Addison observed subtle details that triggered his suspicions: the fur texture seemed slightly different from that of a domestic dog, and the head shape didn't correspond to any puppy breed he recognized. These observations started planting doubts in his mind about the creature's true identity.
