Day 252: 5 Minute Freewrite: Thursday-Prompt: talking dog
Dogs have been in my life since the day I was born, with each one being unique in their own way. When I was six years old, I began training my first dog to do tricks. The trio I had while my kids were growing up was no exception. School was out for the summer and I had promised my young kids that they could get a puppy. We heard about a litter of eight, all desperately needing a home. When we arrived to meet the puppies, the runt was cowered in the corner with the other puppies picking on him. It was love at first sight and nine week old Sampson was ours. He was a fast learner and his tricks were many. I even taught him how to talk.
Before he got a treat I asked, "What do you say?" Sam replied in his deep voice, "I want it." After I gave him a hug and kiss, he gave me a hug and said, "I wuv you." We never left home without him and when Sam knew that we were about to go out, he ran to the door and in a high pitched voice said, "Bye-bye" again and again until we were out the door. Word got out about Sam and it wasn't long before strangers came up to us while we were on our outings, asking if our dog was the talking dog. Sam's proof always amazed and brightened the day for the onlookers.

Super smart dog! : )
The shape of a dog’s face suggests how long it will live. Dogs with sharp, pointed faces that look more like wolves typically live longer. Dogs with very flat faces, such as bulldogs, often have shorter lives.
You must have made a ton of money with your talking dog.:-)
