My Very Best Friend
by Desiree C., age 12
OK here is Baby’s story. When I got Baby she was a very nervous black and tan german shepherd. She was from German Shepherd Rescue but first came from a terrible family who neglected and abused her as a puppy.
She was actually adopted by one of my neighbors. Sadly though, they asked my other neighbor to care for her while they went on a "trip". They decided to move there and never come back. Baby had been abandoned. Now my neighbor had a dog. Although he loved dogs, he could not care for one at the moment. At that time I was looking for a dog too. But the story gets worse.
Baby began to escape from their yard and wander into the road. They tried their best to contain her but it was no use. She still got out. That is when I stepped in.
I brought Baby home with me in November 2004 and still have her. I later found out that she was registered in the A.K.C. and I now show her in small local shows. She is the best dog a girl could have!!! |
