The Dog Island/Trouble with the Victory Gang Dogs

When you go near Amalia, you will see a cut-scene with her and two of the Victory Gang Dogs. She says that they are fighting over something silly that no one cares about. She says that they don't scare her. Then you come along and growl at them as well. Then Camu and McCoy, two more of the Victory Gang Dogs, come along. McCoy asks who you think you are. You don't say anything, and so McCoy says that you've got some guts.

McCoy says that they will not take your orders, unless you can prove that you are better than them. In other words, if you can beat all of them then they will follow your orders. But Camu steps in and asks McCoy who died and made him leader. McCoy tells him to shut his mouth and follow his orders.

When they are gone, Amalia tells you that they are the Victory Gang Dogs. When Bill used to be the leader, they were good dogs who did good things for the villagers, but ever since Bill retired to become a fisherman, it was a battle between McCoy and Camu because both wanted to be the next leader. So they aren't really bad dogs.

Amalia asks if you can go and talk to Bill, who is working as a fisherman at the beach in Green Meadows.

Last Leader of the Victory Gang Dogs
Go to Green Meadows and down to the beach, and you will see Bill with a question mark over his head. Go and talk to him. He will say that he used to be the leader of the Victory Gang Dogs. He says that he is sorry for the trouble they are causing. When he retired, he wanted the next leader to be voted on, but instead it has become a battle between McCoy and Camu to see who can collect the most Victory Gang Badges. He would go and talk to them, but he has lost his Victory Gang Badge somewhere in the Treely Woods. If you get it for him, he thinks they might treat him as an ex-leader.

Go to Treely Woods, go across the bridge, and turn south. Turn left where the path splits in two, and you will see a Gorilla. Wait for it to fall asleep, howl at it, and sniff around for the Victory Gang Badge. When you have it, take it back to Bill.

Bill thinks that even though he has the badge, the other Victory Gang Dogs won't listen to him. Therefore he asks you to go and talk to them. He thinks that Camu, the Jack Russel Terrier, is in the Victory Gang Dogs' Hideout in Pupsville.

Hide and Seek with Camu
Go to Pupsville, and the Victory Gang Dogs' Hideout is to the east of Noble's house (near Amalia's house and Jeremy's house). Go near the door, and Camu will appear. You give him Bill's message, but he doesn't trust you. He says that if you win at a game of Hide and Seek with him, he will trust you. You need to look for Clark the Pug, Kurtis the Dachshund and him, Camu. For an advantage, he will let you sniff their Badges.

Once the game starts, you can start sniffing around. Kurtis is hiding behind Amalia's house, Clark is hiding behind Dorothy's house and Camu is hiding between the Cafe and the flower collector's house at the west edge of town. When you have found them all, Camu will say that you win, and will give you his Victory Gang Badge.

He will tell you that one of the other Victory Dogs told him that someone in this town needs help.

Pull him out of his house
Go near Amalia who is standing by Alex's house, and you will see them having an argument. Amalia tells Alex that he is a lazy old good for nothing, and that he is too old to be staying inside all the time. Alex says that she shouldn't use words like that. She tells him he needs more variety in his life. He then tells her that he is a perfect example of variety, and starts to talk about why. Amalia has had enough and tells him to shut up. Alex points out that she started this and now she wants him to shut up, and he says that she's not a very good conversationalist. He tells her that the pen is mightier than the sword, and the big brother is mightier than the little sister. He says that he chooses to stay at home and read as much as he can.
