I can't see anything. My tiny dog eyes have not yet opened. I have 8 brothers and sisters. We have to push each other for a warm place. Á!!! I've just been kicked out! Freeze! Now you're getting it back!!!

Well, yes. When we'd kick each other out, we'd usually give it back. At least I always did.

I can see! My eyes are open! Wow! I didn't know mom was white and had black spots! And that 5 of my 8 brothers and sisters are the same as mom and 3 are black with white spots. I'm one of those two.

My favourite snacks were the milk I sucked out of my mum's breast and the carrots she tore in half with her teeth.

But once... something grabbed me! It was in 5 parts. 2 separate things that are the same! It was some big monster, the other monsters said it was human. They said they grabbed me because they wanted to find me and my brothers an owner. I didn't understand that yet. That was 2 new words.

Mom told me that humans are a separate group, much larger than us. She also said that we are animals. And she also answered what a farmer is. She said that the one they call us is our master. Or I don't know, but that's what I meant: fishy fishy fishy fishy fishy...

And he even said that we have a master because we can't take care of ourselves. That was a lot of information to take in. I think I'm going to fall asleep.

But to return to the fact that a hand grabbed me and took me away. It took me away because it told me that I had to divorce my mother when I was very young. I didn't understand that either, and I missed her very much.

They said that mother was given to a family called Alsom. And I was taken to the "shelter" with my brothers and sisters. All my brothers were adopted, but not me. They didn't want me. I don't know why, but I was left alone and very lonely.

But suddenly a family came. A family who wanted to take me home! They took me home. I had a wonderful life, but I still missed my mother very much.

But the 1st day he came home I tore up the newspaper, broke his vases, scraped them all up, and peed on the floor. They were very angry, so they said they didn't want me.

Families have done this to me many times. It was very bad. By the time I got to love them, they passed me on. I lived half my life like that, but luckily I was taken home by a family who hadn't thrown me out yet! I was very happy, but I always missed my mum. When they left I looked through the cards on the table.

"Alsom family"-I read everywhere. It reminded me of something. It's not where I moved to....- but I couldn't finish that sentence because someone spoke:

- My puppy? - was my mum.

- Mom?", I was very happy and cried.

- Why are you crying?

- From joy. I missed you so much!

However, originally the little girl (a member of the Alsom family) wanted a horse.... so my mum and I dressed up as a horse. When the little girl saw us, she just laughed and laughed. She couldn't stop, she laughed so hard. She was so happy.

We lived on in happiness and love.
