A Day As A Pet

On Monday night,I had a dream that I turned into a dog.When I woke up I did not feel like myself.After I had my launch I turned into a dog.But I did not know until I looked in a mirror.I was still in the same house with my family .But instead of living inside the house,I was living outside in the garden.

The first thing i did as a dog was bark to call my mum and dad.I was playing catch the ball with my sister at the park.I had so much fun during bath time.

The next I remember was the food I ate.I was digging for bones to chew on.I also had some dog food in a bowl.It tasted quite different from human food.

All my foods were served to me by my mum.She would put everything in a bowl and leave it outside in the garden for me.

The day I spent as a dog was very funny and differnt from my usual days.The best thing I did as a dog was digging for bones.I do not think i'd like to live as a dog forever because,i preferin my own bed.
