Sakura and Naruto exited his apartment and started walking to the pet store. After only twenty seconds of walking, Sakura abruptly stopped and glared at Naruto who was walking upright.

"What the hell do you think you're doing dog? Dogs crawl on all fours."

"Sorry Mistress... I just didn't want to get all cut up and bloody from crawling on the gravel outside."

"If I want you to get cut up and bloody, you will get cut up and bloody." Sakura proclaimed. "All fours. Now."

Naruto sighed and dropped to all fours.

"That's better." Sakura grinned. She went to continue walking, but suddenly stopped herself and looked back at Naruto. He had gone along with her ploy yesterday and passed on the only opportunity he would ever have to escape from her...

"Channel chakra to your palms and your knees dog." Sakura sighed. "Just like you would for tree walking, or water walking."

"Umm..." Sakura made it sound so easy! But with Naruto's massive chakra pool, he had never had very good chakra control. "Sure... let's see here..." The ground cracked beneath Naruto's palms and knees as he tried to expel the perfect amount of chakra.

"Really?" Sakura sighed. "You've mastered sage mode, the rasengen, the rasen shuriken... And you can't do this?"

"You know I've never been great with chakra control Mistress." Naruto replied as he tried adjusting the amount of chakra he was expelling.

"Kami... I enslaved an idiot." Sakura sighed. "Here, let me help." Sakura put her hand on top of Naruto's head and pushed her chakra into his body. She pushed her chakra so it was being expelled from his palms and knees at a perfect rate to protect him from the rocks he was going to be crawling over. "Feel that? That's the amount you need."

"Right..." A look of concentration appeared on Naruto's face as Sakura removed her hand from his head. She frowned when all he managed to do was cause the ground to crack beneath him again.

"You're hopeless sometimes dog." Sakura sighed as she put her hand back on his head. "You can stop trying now, I'll do it. We don't have all day for you to figure out this simple technique, if you even want to call it that."

"Sorry Mistress... It's always taken me a while to figure out things requiring chakra control..."

"Whatever." Sakura cut her dog off. "Let's just go." Sakura idly scratched the top of Naruto's head like an owner would a dog as they walked to the pet store. She smirked as villagers gawked at the sight of Naruto crawling and her scratching his head like the dog she made him.

During the entire walk, she made sure to keep protect Naruto's palms and knees with her chakra so he didn't get cut up. Her grin widened when the pet store finally came into sight. She couldn't wait to put a collar around her dog's neck.
