My Day
by Gracie Phillip
Before today I didn't know what a Dog Park was. There's a new one that just opened in Frostburg and today I was enlightened.
We entered into the gates that said 'Small and Senior Dogs'. I'm not sure which one I am... but it didn't matter. I was the only one there.
I ran... and I ran... and I ran
Then I took a break.
I was parched.
Rissie and I bounced around and played a while, then I got tired.
Dear Diary,
Today I went to a Dog Park. I had fun until another dog came and wanted to be friends. She was fluffy and white... quite pretty she was... but I didn't like her eyes so I snapped at her. Mom smacked my butt then muzzled me with her hand. I hate it when she does that! All the way home in the car all I heard was... 'Gracie, you're bad', 'Gracie's going to go to obedience school', 'Stop drooling on my neck, Gracie!' 'Gracie doesn't play well with others'. Gracie, Gracie, Gracie.
Hey, I didn't ask to go to the dog park.
I think they're serious about the obedience school thing and I'm going to try to be on my best behavior. Just in case.
Glad this day's over. Gracie.
