It's Memorial Day Weekend! If you're going on trips and taking long drives, you need longer stories to listen to. Today we're sharing a longer story that was originally told in three parts in 2017, all edited together for your listening pleasure! Please enjoy "Soft: The First Dog" the story of how humans and dogs first became friends. (Please note: This story might be more appropriate for some of our older listeners, about 7 and up!) We'll be back with new stories next week. Enjoy the long weekend!Draw us a picture of what you think any of the characters in this story look like, and then tag us in it on instagram @storiespodcast! We'd love to see your artwork and share it on our feed!!If you would like to support Stories Podcast, you can subscribe and give us a five star review on iTunes, head to patreon.com/stories and pledge to make a monthly donation, check out our merch at storiespodcast.com/shop, follow us on Instagram @storiespodcast, or just tell your friends about us!
