Scratch, The Dog

Did I ever tell you about Scratch? He's my dog. When he's happy, he snarls. Like this:


Isn't that charming!?

Did I ever tell you about how he got his name? If I did, here it is again. It was one day after school and we went out to the car. I noticed in the car that we were going a different way so I asked where we were going. They my grandparents said: "Didn't you want a dog?"

Then when I got there, it took me an hour to decide. And then I saw him--a cute, adorable, small puppy who was very wiggly by the way Then we went outside and the sales person wanted to take our picture. My grandmother was holding the puppy and I was standing right next to her. Then the puppy scratched me on the lip and it started bleeding. So then I was crying and said: "I know what I am calling him." So that's how he got his name--SCRATCH.

A HAIKU
Scratch is a puppy.
Scratch is such a cute puppy.
And he is squirmy

That's all the time I have for today, folks. Bye.

Hi Casey,
Hmmm....when our Kelly snarled, she was usually ready to take a bite out of you...but I know Scratch is nice. I had forgotten that story about how he got his name. He's a nice dog..

How are you doing. We miss you a lot. I hear that you're coming this Summer...and we'll do some fun things together.

Hope you're doing well in school. What else is new?

Hope you're reading your Bible and growing...

Lots of love,
Aunt Joyce

Ciao from Italy Casey and Scratch.
I hope you are enjoying school.
I think Scratch is the perfect dog for you. He is so lovable looking.
We leave beautiful Italy on Sunday and will miss it a lot. We do not have plans to return for a while. Next summer our big trip will be a cruise around the British Isles.
Have you been to England?
Thanks for visiting my blog. It was nice to hear from you.
ciao
