Hi again, ^ this here is Rosy, a sweet Bulldog with a loving home. But it didn't start out so perfect. My family found poor Rosy skin and bones in our yard on a cold September morning. It was also my brothers birthday. So my mom was doing dishes and spotted a dog outside the window and went outside. I was getting ready for school (I think it was a Monday) and my mom was outside with my brother. Here, they had caught her and put her in our outside barn. Then, I saw my mom outside ans went out so investigate myself. I was like omg there is dog infront of me. I asked my mom if it was one of my dad's workers's dog. But, we soon found out it was most likely an Amish farm owners dog.(Since we have a million where I live) So we put flyers out and stuff. Nobody claimed it. My mom took the flyers of in a few days and gave that "plan A" up. "Plan B" was to take her to the vet and get all needed shots. Then we would keep her and find her a home. I still remember after school I would ask "Hi mom how is Rosy doing?" I would play with her  everyday after school. Until, one sad day when a couple came over to look at Rosy. It was all over....... After they took her away I cried. I only knew her for about 2 weeks but, it felt as if I had known her all my life. I still cry writing this back story. But when we found her she was awful, she had goop in her eyes, she was skinny, and just why?, why do people do this to animals? But she is all fine now. Animals have this affect on me that just, makes you feel whole. Without animals or pets, I don't know where I would be today. Pets help so many people like firefighters, police, hospitals, old people, even people in jail. I think people that abuse animals never had the feeling of love that I have with animals. This one story can tell a lot. And this dog was lucky enough to get a second chance by someone that would care for it until it got back onto her paws again. Animals are not just pets, they are more than that. They are just as much as people as we are. So the next time you are about to yell at you furry friend for chewing up that pillow, say is it really worth it? I hope people can learn from this story. Learn that animal and any abuse is wrong. And you are just plain old stupid if you do it. Thanks.
