The Best Gift Ever by Sarah Kim

     On Thanksgiving, a cute, fluffy puppy came to our house. We had visited her about a few weeks before but she had gotten much bigger when she brought her home. The picture you see above is Marley, the cutest labradoodle ever. A labradoodle is a mix of a labrador retriever and a poodle.
     My brother and I had been begging for a dog since, well, forever. We had a beagle the year before but it turned out that my dad was allergic so we had to give him up. We have had a lot of pets, including three dogs(including Marley), a bunny, two chicks, and a fish. Not necessarily in that order.
     Labradoodles are hypoallergenic dogs so she doesn’t shed. We had to give up our past pets for numerous reasons but Marley is not going anywhere. She was eight weeks old when we got her and now she is about fourteen months old. Marley is very smart. She knows a lot of tricks, including sit, down, shake paws, high five,

MY WINTER BREAK

This winter break I went to my grandma’s house in Panama, New York. That’s near the city of Jamestown. While I was up there I went to my aunt’s house and she has a barn. I took care of a horse named Bear. It was funny watching them eat. I also got to feed them treats from my hand! I was scared at first, but then I did it and it tickled! When I got out of the barn I went to see my dog. While I was watching him play on the 5 acre yard, he came by their ice cold pool. He stared at the pool and then he suddenly took a leap in the pool! STUPID DAWG! That was my vacation to Panama, New York!
