A NEW CHAPTER: jack puppy

Hi! My name is Jack, as you probably already know. Kolby’s gonna take a break for a bit and I am gonna tell you all about me. So pull up a pillow and let's get started. Are you ready? Ok, here goes: I was born on a farm way out in the middle of no where. I spent my days splashing in the creek and my nights under the stars. A true "dogs life" if I may say. Then, one day, I was taking a nap under the old car with my brothers when I was awakened by some chatter. When I was pulled out from under the car, there was this really good smelling lady. Who was this? I was handed over to the lady and she just smiled at me. You could say we were a match from the start. After a few minutes of chatter, the man who came with the good smelling lady went to the truck and brought back a big red dog! YIKES! Who was this, and what's going on. The big red dog came over to me, sniffed and inspected me. I wasn't sure what was going on, but I figured I should check him out too. Only fair right? So I began to ask the big guy some questions...

"So, what's your name?" I asked.

"My name is Kolby," he responded. "And those are my parents," he said while looking back and the good smelling lady and man.

"Your parents! They can stand on two legs! That's so cool!" I couldn't believe it.

"Well they aren't my birth parents," Kolby explained. "They adopted me when I was a pup, about your age actually. And that's what they are doing for you. Things will be different after today. In a good way, I promise."

"Adopted? But why?" I asked in a bit of a worried tone. I liked it here on the farm. I got to play all day with my brothers... wait... now that I think about it... where are my brothers today? Oh my! They must've been adopted too!

"Don't worry," Kolby assured me. "Things will be great. We'll get to still play all the time, we get treats, go to the park, and you're gonna love all the toys we have."

"Well, I guess it does sound like a lot of fun. As long as I can stay with the nice lady, I really like her."

"That will work out great," Kolby said. "Cause I am a bit of a Daddy's boy, I honestly think that's why Mom wanted to drive all the way out here to see you. Because she wanted someone who would always be there for her. So it's great that you already like her so much."

Ok, this wasn't sounding too bad afterall. I guess it would be nice to have someone to call my own. And it sounds like the lady is looking for the same thing. So, now that I am a little more at ease, it's time to play! And with that, I lept at Kolby and we jumped around in the grass. YEAH! The people just laughed at us while they filled out some papers. Once everything was squared away it was time to leave. I kissed my furry Mom good-bye and waved to Dad off in the distance. I looked out the window as I sat on my new Mommy's lap and watched the trees go by. After a bit, I climbed to the backseat to hang out with my new big brother.

"So, where are we going?"

"It's off to the big city now," Kolby said with a big reassuring smile on his face.
