Get a dog- they begged.
We need it.
Get a dog-they pleaded
We’ll care for it.
Get a dog- they cried.
We’ll walk it.
I got the dog
He tore apart my furniture.
I got the dog.
I stepped in a pile of poop.
I got the dog.
I take him for his walks.
They don’t play with the dog.
They are at school
They don’t notice the dog.
They are at club.
They don’t care for the dog.
They moved out.
It’s just me and the dog.
I fell in love.
It’s just me and the dog.
He’s my companion.
It’s just me and the dog.
He’s all I have left.
