One my dad was at a business trip out of state, it was a hot summer after noon and my brother Charlie, my mom and I were going to go to the mall to get some clothes for the start of summer. So we went after dinner and when we got there we bought some clothes. After that we went to get a soft pretzel, right buy the pet shop. I asked my mom "Can we __**PL**__**__EASE__** get a dog?" My mom finally cracked and said "fine." So we went to the pet shop in a split second! My brother and I were looking around for a while, then we found the one. There was a litter of Shetland sheep dogs. Charlie and I ran to my mom and told her about the litter of puppies. So she walked over and she agreed to getting a puppy.So my mom got a workers attention and said " can we get one of these puppies?" The worker said " sure, I would recommend the calm one." Of course we choose the one that curled up into a ball sleeping. But it turns out he was the wild one. Once we drove home my mom took him out of the kennel and we started listing names for him. I think we went through about one thousand names I think!!! We couldn't of one that night therefore we went to bed. The next morning my dad came home at around 10:00 am. We told him about the puppy. At first he was surprised then he was O.K. with it. My dad took a nap. Then we went to Petco to get him bowls, puppy chow and a leash. Then it clicked to my mom. ''Clover!" she yelled. We all agreed to it.We had Clover for about a good 4 years. But then we had to give him away because my mom had just moved into a town home and he liked to run. Plus my dad was a full time worker, so we gave him to a nice family that has another Shetland sheep dog too. my brother and I teased him all the time because the sheep dog that they have is a girl named Carly. We sing " Clover and Carly sitting in a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G." I have a picture of them looking at each other. I was soooo sad when he left I couldn't stop crying for days, even through it felt like years!======
