Glory’’s Adventure

I used to wake up in the morning next to my favorite humans, Max and Maria. It was nice and warm, peaceful and quiet. Now, I wake up in a shelter in a cage on the cold dusty ground. In the cage next to me is my best friend, Glacier. We would eat lunch together. Then we would play outside and run and jump. It was so fun to play outside. Then we would go back inside to get a treat. After that, we would go to sleep. Sometimes the days were the same, but this day went all wrong.

I woke up as normal, but I did not see my friend Glacier. I hoped he didn’t get killed but he maybe he got adopted by a good family. I watched the shelter workers take down Glacier’s sign and I realized that he was adopted. I felt lonely and sad. My good friend was gone, and I was alone without a friend.

A couple days went by. I was so lonely. More days went by, but then two people and a kid came in to look at dogs. They stopped right in front of my cage. I was scared at first, but they looked nice. Then the dog catcher opened the door and put a leash on me. I was taken outside and the kid was walking me. Then I thought to myself, “Maybe I can find my friend Glacier.”

I just ran as fast as I could. The kid fell and he started crying. I felt bad for him, but I needed to find my friend. I was running as fast as I could from them but the two people and the dog catcher were getting closer to me. I kept running and I escaped from them. I needed to find a place to stay at for the night. But first I needed to find some food. 

I was walking down the sidewalk and I saw my friend Glacier in a car! The car was going fast so I needed to run really fast to catch up to him. I ran and ran and then the car stopped at a house. The person and Glacier got out. I walked up to the house and went to the back to see if they were outside. I couldn’t get in, but I saw some wood piled against the fence. I got up on the wood and jumped over and then I saw my friend. I missed him so much. 

We were so happy to see each other that we ran and jumped around. Just then the person came out and said, “Is this your friend? I guess we have room for two dogs in this house.”

This was the best news! We all went down to the animal shelter and I was officially adopted too. I got to go home and I got some food. Then Glacier and I went outside to play. We ran and jumped like the good times. My adventures led me to my new home I had hoped for.
