The Dog Island/Arrive on the Island

Blackie wakes up. He is surprised to see that he is on a bed and there is a Golden Labrador looking at him! The labrador is Amalia, and she tells him that she's glad he didn't hit any of the rocks surrounding the island, because if he'd have hit one of them, he wouldn't be waking up right now! It was Mr. Birdy who told her about him. She asks Blackie why he was so desperate to get to The Dog Island. Blackie explains the situation. Amalia says she'll take him to see Dr. Potan.

Go to Dr. Potan
Amalia will go across the bridge to the middle of the village, and you will see which building is Dr. Potan's clinic. All you need to do is go the way Amalia went and when you get near the clinic door (Amalia's standing outside) you will automatically go inside. You will see the Beagle, Dr. Potan, Standing behind his desk.

Dr. Potan asks Amalia whom she has brought with her today, and she tells him about Blackie. Dr. Potan asks why Blackie has come to see him and he explains the situation. Apparently, this illness is very unusual but Dr. Potan has treated a similar illness in the past, but he doesn't know if this is exactly the same. Amalia begs him to help Blackie, and he says that he will, but he needs a few days to work out what things he needs to use to cure Blackie's sister.

Haunted House
Once they are back outside, Amalia says that because you'll be staying here for a few days, you need a place to stay. She knows that Noble, a Yorkshire Terrier (and Chairman of Pupsville) has a house which he isn't using. Amalia takes Blackie to see Noble.

Noble greets them, and agrees to let Blackie stay in the house, but first he asks a question... 'Do you believe in ghosts?' Blackie is confused, and Noble says that some dogs have seen strange happenings, or heard something moving in an empty room. Some say that the house is haunted, and others even go as far as to say that Noble's family is cursed! He tells Blackie that he can use the house if he can find out what has been going on.

Once outside, go to the left and you'll see Amalia standing at the front door of your house. Just go near her to go inside, and once you are, she'll say; 'It's not like I believe in ghosts or anything, but I've just remembered something that I... uh... really have to do'. Then, she'll leave you in the house, and you'll learn a strange new smell. Follow it to the fireplace, and then a very weird looking thing will come out.

The thing is surprised that Blackie can see him, and asks if he is one of those sniff masters he heard about. Blackie is confused, and the thing says that he just sniffed out a hiding anc, which is something no ordinary dog can do. The thing introduces himself as Petasi, the anc. He will tell you that ghosts and ancs are completely different things. Ghosts are made up, but ancs have been around at least as long as dogs, but dogs have forgotten they exist. Then he says that Blackie should let Noble know that it wasn't a ghost in the house.

Go back to Noble's house, and talk to him, and he'll be surprised that it was an anc, and says that Blackie can use the house for as long as he wants. After that, go back outside the house.

Plant an Anc Tree
Petasi will say that there was something he needed to do, and he wants Blackie to help him find a large grassy area. He remembers that there was an area like that somewhere in the middle of the town. All you need to do is go to the middle of the village and to the round grass area, and Blackie will help Petasi plant the Anc tree. Petasi tells him that every time someone says thankyou to it's owner, it takes the appretiation and uses it as energy to grow. When it has grown really big, Petasi will be able to go back to the land of Ancs.

He wonders if Dr. Potan is ready yet, and says they should go and find out.
