How dogs got their Bark!

How dogs got their bark!

"They all look nasty!'' said Amy's mother, scrunching up her nose, because of the smell. They were both in the pet shop, trying to choose a puppy. "Look at that cute puppy, mum!" exclaimed Amy. "Ok, whatever. Lets just get out of here! This place stinks!"  complained Amy's mother, now holding her nose as  they  got closer towards the puppy. The puppy was a White Australian Terrier. Amy carried the little puppy to the counter, and her mum bought it. Amy already loved it. But when they got home, Amy's grumpy dad and her annoying brother, Sam saw the little puppy, they didn't look again. "What do you think you bought? That dog is horrible!"demanded the grumpy father. Sam was very dissapointed. "I told you to get a labrador, not a Australian Terrier!" Amy's mum was quite ashamed. "Sorry, but Amy wanted it so badly!" Amy was cuddling the little  puppy, like she would never let go. Amy was only 7, so her bed time was at 7:30. Sam was  10, so he went to bed at 8:00.

When both kids in bed were, Amy's mother and father talked in  low voices."We can't keep the puppy. We have to give it away, because it's to stinky." complained the father in a wisper. "Ok, if we must. Boy, Amy will be mad!" sighed the tired mother, who went along with anything. So when Amy was fast asleep, the Father steaked in Amy's bedroom and picked up the puppy and put it in a box outside the door of their next door naboor's door. He took no notice of the puppies wimper. Then the puppy fell asleep in a very uncomfortable way.In the morning, the puppy woke up with a jump. "Where am I?' thought the little puppy." I'm in a  box.' She peeked through one of the holes. 'But why? Does that that family hate me? I'm sure Amy doesn't! I must get out and find Amy!' So the little puppy pushed over the box with all it's mite. And looked around her. 'Where does Amy live?' The little puppy wondered. She had only been in Amy's house for a night so she didn't know where Amy lived. Then the little puppy started running down the street. She kept running over fields and grass, till she couldn't go any further. Then she flopped down at the side of the foot path, exaughsted, and soon was asleep.

A little while later, along skipped an 11 year old girl called Eve on her way back from school. Her dad was a very clumbsy wizard, called Mr Clever, but he doesn't really match his name. When Eve saw the little abandoned puppy at the side of the road, she stopped in surprise. She then picked up the little thing and while cradiling the little thing, she wispered into it's soft fur. "I think I will call you Amber. I wonder where you came from." Amber tried to awnser, but all that came out was a little sqeak. "Maybe my dad can give you a voice so you can tell me where you came from." said Eve. So she carried the puppy home.

When Eve got home to her little red cottage, she called, "Hi dad, look what I found." Then she dumped her school bag in the courner, and walked through the living room to another section build on for Mr Clever. "Dad, I found this little puppy at the side of the road. Could you give it a voice so she can talk to us?" asked Lucy. "Sure!" said Mr Clever, tipping some magic pawder in tom a glass bottle. He was wearing a magic cape covered in yellow stars, and a green pointy hat. Then he got out his spell book, and went to the page for 'Giving Someone a Voice'. But unfortunately, it said bark! So Mr Clever cast the spell on Amber, but once the spell is cast, it can't be undone. And thats how dogs got their bark. Eve kept Amber and they were happy together.

 The End.
