THE  SCARED DOG

One day, while Bella was playing, she saw a beautiful dog. It was a very cute Pomeranian dog with white furs. The dog was standing in the middle of the road and was afraid as its owner left it on the road willingly. The dog was very sad and was moaning in pain. Bella quickly picked it up and brought it to her home.

THE FIRST MEETING

As you all know, Betty did not like dogs, she started to shout at Bella. However, Bella did not listen to her and made the dog comfortable and fed it. Hearing the conversation, the mother rushed immediately and said, “Darling, from where did you find this dog? Why did you bring it home?” To this, Bella replied, “Mamma, the poor dog was sad because its owner left it on the road. So, I brought her home. She will stay with us from now on.” The mother smiled and immediately agreed.

The poor Betty was not happy with her decision. She was really scared of the dogs. In the evening, the father came from the office. He also tried hard to make Betty understand, but Betty was very stubborn. She did not want this dog to stay at her home. You may also like to read, The Dog and The Wolf.
