My sister and I were about 7 years old and my brother was 5. My dad dropped us off at my grandmas because we were going to spend the night. My dad said that if we were good he would get a surprise. I wonder what it will be? So I tried being good as possible. My dad and mom went to the animal shelter to go look at the puppies. They found a perfect one for us. It was a black lap and a English pointer as know as a hunter dog. Her name was cricket. My mom said she was named right after my great grandmas dog.
When we came home my dad opened the door, My siblings and I heard barking we went upstairs. Then we found our mom holding the puppy. We all gather around her trying to pet her. My cat whiskers comes on the couch licking my dog. My family and I watch as they lick each other. We all think that it's so cute. Then my siblings and I go to our rooms to go to sleep. My parents come in to say goodnight. I see them take my dog upstairs to sleep.
