My childhood dream...

My most cherished dream, which I had planned for several years on the birthday, was to get a dog. Even when it was not yet, I remember imagining how to hold a leash, and next to a dog, and so we go together. It seemed to me that this is something unrealistically cool, like she understands me, I talk with her and we have a complete idyll of relationships.

I was then 6 years old. I remember with Dad went to the spontaneous market, where these dogs were sold. The breed was not important for me, I liked all of them and I agreed to any. Immediately we chose a terrier.

Just like that.

There were some hiccups for payment and so owner did not sell it, instead of it we were offered a dog, a girl. As I remember, there was no special money, so they traded it for a bag of sugar. How much excitement I could not convey with words.

I immediately began to study the literature about dogs. The book bought by parents was studied far and wide. I was so interested in studying the habits of each breed, before they were not so much as now.

I did not allow her to cut ears, as she imagined that it would be cut off with a knife ... so immediately tears would come. Therefore, it was not with cropped ears, from this Dean (so her name was) seemed to me even more special.

I learned how to cook porridge myself, this was my first dish, but Dina did not complain. There were obligations of morning festivities, it was hard for me, so my father often replaced me. In general, I can say that this disciplined me and developed a sense of responsibility.

She lived with us for two years, there was an accident, she was hit by a truck ... but my childhood dream came true ... After with us lived another dog, a French bulldog. It was also a wonderful dog, but Dina was my first, my favorite always.
