We were in the car. I was watching outside as everything rushed past us. Unexpectedly, my father asked us (my sister and I) about getting a dog.
We both thought he was crazy; why would we ever get a dog? As for me, I was scared of dogs. Their scare technique worked quite well on me: barking. No, I couldn't imagine getting one of those creatures.
But then he took us to the Humane Society. When that happened, I realized that he wasn't kidding; we just might actually get a dog.
