Balto, wake up!
What? What? What's the matter?
The matter is, you were having dream again.
Aah! Ugh!
So what if I was? It's just a dream.
This "just a dream" is keeping you from a decent sleep.
And if your eyes get any droopier,
you'll have to keep them open with toothpicks.
Boris, they'll stop drooping if you just go away and let me get some rest.
Wrong! You won't be getting rest--
not with that dream hanging 'round like... dark cloud.
I hate it when you get dramatic. How else to reach you?
I'm telling you, boychik, if you keep having same dream again and again.
it means something!
Boris,
dreams don't mean anything, they're just--
dreams.
Now, you wanna come with me?
I have to go check on jenna.
Of course I come! I'm not finished nagging you yet!
So, if dreams mean nothing,
why does it always have raven and pack of wolves, huh?
Why not pickled herring?
Because herring would be in one of your dreams, not mine.
Precisely! Raven and wolves have meaning only to you.
Balto, look!
On totem pole- there is raven and wolf!
Calm down, Boris. There's also a fox, a wolverine-
Oy, such scary creatures! They should only live and be well...
far away from me.
And a bear and a caribou.
They're just wood carvings, Boris. Yes, I know, I know.
Humans use them to tell stories.
But of what, I don't know.
Balto, maybe seeing raven and wolf on totem pole...
is making you dream something very important.
Well, like what? Like something you forgot.
or maybe something you are supposed to know.
Look, Boris, all I know is that the totem pole marks the shortcut to jenna's.
and that's good enough for me.
Oh, boy! Stubborn. Ach!
Brrr! Oh! There you are, laddies!
I've been smelling all over for you!
Would you stop with the bouncing and make with the talking?
I'm getting dizzy!
The stork has landed. I repeat.
the stork has landed!
jenna?jenna!
What stork? I thought we were talking about raven.
Oh, boy. That stork. I'm coming, Balto!
- Hello, Balto. -
Well, come in. They don't bite--
at least not yet.
Oh, jenna. They're--
they're so beautiful.
just like you.
And you.
Look at me! I'm an uncle.
- Balto. - jenna?
Oh, I haven't had that dream for a while.
Balto! jenna?
Oh, no.
Good morning, sleepyhead.
Did you forget about watching the pups today while my girl and I go on a picnic?
What? Me? Forget?
Never.
Balto, you look so tired. What's wrong?
Oh, nothing.
Hey, pups! Good to see you too.
Hey, watch it, now! Come on. That tickles!
Say, why don't they spend the night with me, and then tomorrow we can all go on a picnic?
Balto, don't you remember? Tomorrow is the day for our pups to find their new homes.
Tomorrow? But, jenna, th ey 're-th ey 're only eight weeks old.
I mean, whats the hurry?
I know how you feel, Balto. Puppy! Come to Uncle Boris!
Uncle Boris! Uncle Boris!
Oh, but it's their time now. I was their age when I was adopted by my girl.
But I - I don't think I can let them go, jenna- not yet.
That's tickling me! Ow! Ow! Ow!
That's my wing! Balto,
each of our children have their own lives to live.
It's our job to love them and then- Let go!
If we wait until they're older, it'll be harder for them to find homes.
You know how humans have a soft spot for puppies.
Yeah, and so do I.
Come on, Balto. All their humans will be from around here.
Oh! I've got to go meet my girl now. Enjoy them, Balto.
And watch out- they're teething.
No kidding! Come on now. Uncle Boris isn't a chew toy.
Hey, take it easy there, tiger.
Oooh, oh!
Strange-- her brothers and sisters look just like dogs.
yet Aleu looks just like--
A dog. Aleu looks like a dog too.
Funny, but from where I stand, I see daughter...
who looks even more wolf than father.
Look, Boris, I just don't want her to be...
different
But she is different!
And vive la difference!
Come on. Being different is painful.
Nobody knows that better than me.
You know how some of the dogs around here still tease me because I'm half wolf?
оу. Aleu may look like a wolf,
but she is going to be all dog.
I wouldn't count on it.
Daddy, Daddy, look at the puppies!
Aleu, honey, please don't howl like that.
- - Sorry, Mama.
It just happens when I'm excited.
I'm excited too! I can't wait to get a human...
and chew on their socks!
Papa, are you gonna get a human too?
Nah. See, humans like cute little puppies like you.
not old grizzly grownups like me.
These are Rosie's puppies, Daddy. jenna had 'em.
I like this one.
I know that human. He'll be a good boy for Dingo. Bye! Bye-bye!
And my puppy can play with jenna when Rosie and I play together.
Mommy, Mommy, look-- puppies! Okay.
Somebody wants you
Somebody needs you
Someone is search ing for уour heart alone
Someone is dreaming waiting and watching
Someone is coming to take you home
Time, it will fly like the sun through the sky
And what once was hello
Turns to good-bye
He's so cute! Oh, I love you!
Tomorrow is h ere now
Sings in your ear now
Child of my heart
Your life is уour own
Never you fear, now
Your path is clear now
Someone who loves you
Someone who loves you
Is taking you home
It's been a long day, jenna. Let's go home.
But we can't. Well, not until a human adopts Aleu.
Face it, jenna. Aleu looks m ore like a wolf than me
No human is ever gonna want her.
That's not true!
We'll just have to keep trying.
Hmm?
Right. Who knew a game of hide-and-seek could be so terrifyin'?
Okay, okay already! Knock off the rough h ousing!
Oh--
Aleu, how can I baby-sit if you won't sit?
You don't sit now here for more than five seconds!
That's "anywhere, " Uncle Boris.
What's anywhere? Don't try to confuse me, young lady.
I'm your baby-sitter.
Uncle Boris, since I'm not a baby anymore, I don't need a baby-sitter.
And you can tell that to my father. Come on, Aleu.
You'll always be my baby, no matter how old you are.
Oh, you're hopeless.
Let's go.
What's going to happen when a human picks me up, huh. Papa?
Who are you going to baby then?
Come on, guys!
She's a good pup.
"Good, " yes. "Pup, " no.
At m ore than year old, Aleu should have home of her own.
When the right time comes, she'll find a home.
Yes, but when the right time comes.
will you let her?
Oy, I hope so.
