I wanted to do a food-related joke involving Amaka, and the joke was that even though she can switch between her human and Shepherd dog forms, that even in her human form, she likes eating food that's meant for housedogs. So, when Amaka goes camping with a group of kids, and a boy next to her notices what kind of food she brought with her for lunch, he is understandably disgusted and very confused.

Although, Amaka is ready to show the others what tricks she has up her sleeve. Her tail is already showing, and her right hand starts to turn into a paw. That's her own contious doing, not a side effect of eating dog food. Amaka can either be a dog or a human, no in-between, and whenever she wants to turn herself into the other form, her transformation is rather quick. Not like, in a flash, but it takes about a second to change her form.
