Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: All computers in Research Site-14 currently host a copy of SCP-XXXX-A and all researchers in Site-14 are encouraged to use SCP-XXXX-A to assist in their efforts. Two additional copies have been installed onto Solid State Drives and are stored in secure storage lockers at Site-14 and Site-███ as a backup. A record of the results of SCP-XXXX-B should be maintained by each researcher using SCP-XXXX-A.

Foundation web-crawlers are to remove all instances of SCP-XXXX from the internet. Any information gathered on PoI-XXXX should be reported to Foundation officials immediately.

Description: SCP-XXXX is an anomalous computer program (titled "DD.███") which was uploaded to ███████.com¹ on 08/20/2019. SCP-XXXX’s file formatting emits a mild memetic effect upon first viewing, compelling the viewer (hereafter referred to as "subject") to download and execute the program. After the subject executes SCP-XXXX, they will become immune to this effect. Extensive research has revealed no other memetic effects pertaining to this anomaly. Executing SCP-XXXX will create an instance of SCP-XXXX-1.

SCP-XXXX-1 is a simulation of a currently unidentified dog park. The simulation is rendered in a three-dimensional environment and automatically adjusts the program to provide the highest quality image.² SCP-XXXX-1 can be navigated in a first-person view with movement possible using the mouse and keyboard. The simulation begins with SCP-XXXX-2 asleep in a clearing 5 meters in front of the subject.

SCP-XXXX-2 is a female Black Labrador³(Canis familiaris) which resides in SCP-XXXX-1. SCP-XXXX-2 will interact with the subject and has been noted to seemingly remember subjects who have previously used SCP-XXXX. SCP-XXXX-2 will respond to input from subjects given through a connected microphone but otherwise acts as a non-anomalous canine.

Addendum XXXX.01: Test Logs

A series of tests were conducted on 09/07/2019 to establish the anomalous effects of SCP-XXXX-1 and SCP-XXXX-2. These tests were performed by Junior Researcher Robinson.

Test #	Procedures	Result	Notes
1.	"Hello?"	SCP-XXXX-2 remained asleep.	Not sure what I'm supposed to put here, I'll just try walking up to the thing.
2.	Subject approached SCP-XXXX-2, stopping 1 meter away. Subject stated: "Hey, wake up."	SCP-XXXX-2 awoke and began stretching its forelegs. Once finished, SCP-XXXX-2 made direct eye contact with the subject.	I'm kinda surprised that worked. Let's see what this thing can do.
3.	"Sit."	SCP-XXXX-2 sat on the ground.	Okay, pretty basic stuff. I'm not sure if we can even call this thing anomalous.
4.	"Roll over."	SCP-XXXX-2 laid on the ground and performed a single roll to the subject's left. Afterward, SCP-XXXX-2 stood up and made eye contact with the subject.	I guess this is why they wanted a junior researcher to test it. This is going to be a long night.

43.	"Go play."	SCP-XXXX-2 began running throughout the park. At various points, SCP-XXXX-2 laid on its back while shifting, presumably to scratch itself.	Well that's pretty interesting, at least a lot more interesting than telling it to "play dead" and watching it lay there for thirty minutes. Further testing has revealed that SCP-XXXX-2 has not been observed repeating the same actions during separate "play sessions." -Researcher █████
62.	"Up the tree."	SCP-XXXX-2 ran to the closest tree (Quercus alba) before running vertically up the trunk. SCP-XXXX-2 ran approximately 25 meters up the tree before stopping on a branch and staring at the subject.	Holy shit that is not what I was expecting. I mean that's what I was hoping to happen, but there is no way someone thought to program that. I am confident in saying either -1, -2, or both are anomalies.
63.	"Jump down."	SCP-XXXX-2 shook its head as if responding "No." A tone played for approximately three seconds, with Junior Researcher Robinson noting it to be: "Just like the buzzer they use for game shows when someone gets a question wrong."	It should be noted that it hasn't refused any other command I've given it so far.
66.	"Come down here."	SCP-XXXX-2 descended the tree significantly slower than expected. It did not appear that SCP-XXXX-2 entered free-fall while traveling down the trunk. Once SCP-XXXX-2 reached the ground, it continued running until stopping approximately 1 meter from the subject.	Okay, so I've thought about this for a bit, I think that -2 refused the last few commands because it would have gotten hurt. When I phrased the command so that it wouldn't jump down, -2 began running down the trunk, but it seemed like gravity was pulling it towards the trunk. It was like it wasn't even being pulled down.
80.	"Bite yourself."	Same results as test 63.	Yeah, that's my best guess. I've tried as many commands as I can think of which would hurt -2, but they all have the same results. I’m ending testing here, I don’t think there’s much more information I can gain from this.

Addendum XXXX.02: Recovery

SCP-XXXX came to the Foundation's attention on 09/06/2019 when off-duty Field Agent ██████ discovered an instance of SCP-XXXX on his daughter's computer. Agent ██████ is trained in recognizing memetic agents, and upon viewing SCP-XXXX, became aware of its effects, and reported ███████.com to the Foundation.

The website was taken under Foundation control immediately, and Mobile Task Force Mu-4 ("Debuggers") was assigned to gather information about SCP-XXXX. The information gathered from MTF Mu-4 is summarized below.

• SCP-XXXX was uploaded to ███████.com by the user "shagster". This was the only post made by the user, and the account was created immediately before SCP-XXXX was posted. This individual is now designated PoI-XXXX.
• SCP-XXXX is the most popular post on the website, and the website received a significant increase in unique users⁴ following the date SCP-XXXX was posted.
• Users seemingly do not recognize SCP-XXXX's anomalous abilities, with many describing it as "a really good version of Nintendogs" [sic].
• PoI-XXXX’s IP address has been provided to the Foundation.

This information has led to the discovery of SCP-XXXX-A (See Addendum XXXX.03 for further information).

Due to the popularity of SCP-XXXX, a misinformation campaign is being undertaken by Foundation operatives. These operatives are to post on various Internet forums explaining that SCP-XXXX uses technology similar to that used in the Nintendo 64’s "Voice Recognition Unit."

Addendum XXXX.03: SCP-XXXX-A

+ Level 4/XXXX-A Access Required

Photo recovered alongside SCP-XXXX-A

On 09/07/2019 after MTF Mu-4 discovered PoI-XXXX's IP address, Foundation RIPALD⁵ units revealed the location from which SCP-XXXX was uploaded. Satellite surveillance revealed it to be ███████ Hotel in ██████, WI. Foundation operatives were dispatched to ███████ Hotel and the owner was questioned. The owner willingly provided relevant documents to all transactions on 8/20/2019, and one individual made a purchase for a single night at the hotel with cash on that date. The owner remarked that the individual left behind a cardboard box, which was now stored in the hotel's lost-and-found.

The owner willingly provided the box, and attached to the side was a note that read: "for the janitors cleaning up my mess." Inside was a photograph and a non-anomalous Sandisk brand USB flash drive containing SCP-XXXX-A.

SCP-XXXX-A is an identical copy of SCP-XXXX titled "DD.exe". SCP-XXXX-A does not possess the memetic effect of SCP-XXXX. Executing SCP-XXXX-A will open an instance of SCP-XXXX-B, which is nearly identical to SCP-XXXX-1. While SCP-XXXX-B is open, pressing "enter" will open a command console, which will allow the subject to significantly edit the simulation.

Test #	Procedure/Command	Result	Notes
1.	>dog awake	SCP-XXXX-2 immediately awoke and began stretching its forelegs. SCP-XXXX-2 approached the subject and made direct eye contact.	Nothing out of the ordinary here, at least I don't have to talk to it every time.
2.	>dog roll over	SCP-XXXX-2 laid on the ground and performed a single roll on the ground. Afterward, SCP-XXXX-2 stood up and made eye contact with the subject.	So far it seems like it's just an easier way to use SCP-XXXX-1. I'm just going to try some of the tests I used last time and see if anything is different.

[EXTRANEOUS LOGS REDACTED FOR BREVITY]

34.	>help	A pop-up message appeared, obscuring the center of the screen. This message read: "Hello, I see you're trying to play with DD but it looks like you need a little assistance. DD loves playing with toys, why not make something for her? Your imagination is the limit!"	I cannot believe that I didn't try that sooner. Might as well try what it says.
35.	>toy	An unmarked object appeared on the ground approximately .5 meters in front of subject. When the subject looked directly at it, a white border appeared to outline the object and text appeared on-screen which read: "laser-pointer" and "pick up".	Alright, so when I clicked on the thing that appeared it just vanished but now it makes a red dot on what I'm looking at each time I click. I wouldn't really call a laser-pointer a toy, but maybe that's just what I get for not being specific.

Due to the usefulness of SCP-XXXX-A in containment research, a copy of SCP-XXXX-A has been downloaded to each computer in Site-14. Reclassification to Thaumiel pending.

Addendum XXXX.04: GoI Connections

After the discovery of PoI-XXXX on 09/07/2019, Foundation web-crawlers supervising social media platforms discovered chat logs indicating the source of the incident to be ███████ Clark, an 18-year-old male living in ██████, WI. As of ██/██/████, all accounts associated with Clark have been inactive since 8/20/2019,
