My dog

I’ve always had dogs growing up 

but they were never really cared for 

They were always getting lost and running away

So we never really had a dog for more than a year


My last childhood dog needed to be given away 

due to moving and not being allowed to have pets

and that was around the age of 8 

She was the only dog i truly remembered 

We always kept in touch with her new owners

She was given a good home and she even became 

a mom 

After her i didn't have another dog until i was 16 


I always asked my parents for another dog but they

always refused

My parents aren't big dog people so i never really 

expected getting another dog but i always tried

asking 

As i got older i started to develop a really big love

for animals

And i think my parents started to notice how much 

I wished i had some sort of pet 


I am the middle child

My siblings and i are all 10 years apart 

My oldest brother moved out when i was 10 and 

there's not really much to talk about with my little brother 

since he's so little

So pretty much i've felt somewhat alone

My parents noticed that i felt alone and decided to 

Buy me a little small pomeranian for me for my 16th birthday 


My oldest brother, his wife , me and my cousin 

drove all the way to Montana in 2020 to pick up my 

little puppy and she has been with me ever since 

She is currently 3 years old and ive had her for 

almost 3 years in june

I take care of her and do everything for her since 

she is my dog 

She has been my biggest responsibility and also my 

biggest blessing 

I love her more than words can explain
