Hi my name is Jack, I am going to tell you how I got my first dog . My brother Ben was in the army. He used a search dog when he was in iraq to look for guns and drugs in towns and houses. But one day two men came to our house and told us some very bad news. They told us that Ben had just died. That was some very bad new for us. At his funeral his search dog came in on a leash and went to the coffin where Ben lay and put to paws on the coffin and wined. Then after that he lied down on the ground and wined.
It was a sad day for us that day. Then we got a phone call asking if we wanted Ben’s dog. So we went to go see the dog. They said that if we didn't adopt him he would get put down, so we took him home.
My dad put some stakes in the ground and tied a chain to the stakes and clipped it to the dog's chain. That night we couldn't sleep because the dog was barking and howling. So my dad yelled through the door to go shut the dog up. So I went outside and sat with the dog and I fell asleep out there.
In the morning my mom came out to wake me up. She asked me,” why are you out here?” I said,”I don't want to talk about it.” So I came inside and ate breakfast, and of course that dog was barking.
I went up the mountain to the bike park. There were guys there and one girl and I told them about the dog I got and the girl said her dad was a pit bull trainer. So she came over to help me with my dog and I got to touch him for the very first time. I was so happy that I got to pet Max for the very first time.
That night my dad went out and bought Max a dog crate so that night max fell asleep. The next day was Fourth of July. We were so worried that Max would be scared of fireworks. I thought that Max would be scared, so I ran home and he was barking like he was scared. I called his name so he would come in the house. He didn't so I went in his crate and sat with him so I could comfort him, so he would not be scared of the loud sounds.
Max went through some more training with the girl I could pet him and walk him. When other dogs walked by him, they would be crazy but Max still walked calmly. He would not pull on the leash or bark, he would just keep on walking. Max also learned how to fetch and walk off leash. The biggest thing of all was that dad got rid of the crate, so now Max can sleep in the house with out peeing or chewing on the couch.
5 Months later
