Getting a new puppy
One day I was walking back from school and I found a puppy on the side of the road. I took the puppy home. I told mum that I had found the puppy. My mum said “Does it have a collar on or a phone number?” I said “Yes”. It had a name it was Zoe. I said “It is my friend Lilly’s dog.” We drove over to Lilly’s house. When we got there Lilly ran over to me and said “I have not seen you for a while.”
I replied “I found your puppy on the road.”
“Thank you so much for finding Zoe .”
Then I said “I have to go now.”
went Lilly said “Ok”. When we got in the car I stared to cried “I’m going to miss the puppy”. Next week I to my Auntie’s house because mum is getting me a surprise. 1 hour later. Mum got back and she said closed your eyes ok I said. Open your eyes. I opened my eyes and there was a puppy for me. Thank you mum you are the best! I loved the puppy so much I will stay home every time when you go into town. mum said ok. when mum went into town and I stayed back with the puppy. I called the puppy Roseanna.
