My Next Dog I Named Champ
While walking to the corner store with my mother , I saw a woman , her daughter , and her son playing with a beautiful puppy . I asked her if the puppy was a Shepherd or a Rottweiler . She told me it was a mix of both . Weeks ago I had just saw a Rottweiler on the TV show ‘ The Flying Nun ’. On this episode , someone had taught a dog how to steal purses . I knew it looked like a Doberman Pinscher but , it was much thicker . The next day in library class , I got a dog book to see if I could find the breed of dog it was . Moreover , to my surprise , I found a picture of a Rottweiler that looked just like the dog on the TV show . After school , I asked my mom if I could have a puppy like the one that was down the street . Mom talked it over with my grandmother who said yes . That evening I walked down the street to see if I saw the woman with the puppy and I did . I asked her how much it would cost to get a puppy from the same litter . She told me the cost was $ 25.00 . I ran home to tell my mom , and she told me she would give me the money on Saturday . At 9:00 A . M . on Saturday morning I was walking down the street with $ 25.00 in my pocket to buy my next puppy who I would name Champ . When I arrived at the women ’ s house , she explained the details to me . She told me she would take me with her but , I had to hide on the side of the house because if the owner of the puppies saw me they would not sell the puppy to me . I agreed and gave her my $ 25.00 for my new puppy . Arriving at the owner ’ s house , I waited on the side of the house wondering why the owner could not see me . It seemed like it took a half an hour for my neighbor to return with my puppy . My mind began to wonder if I had been tricked out of my $ 25.00 . Shortly afterwards , I saw my black and tan puppy coming towards me . I smiled and told the woman thank you . Then I grabbed my puppy , and held him tightly all the way home . When I got home we went to the store to get Champ a collar and leash . My life was complete because I got myself a new Champ to replace the old Champ I had lost .
What I learned from this is , some people judge others by the color of their skin 9
