It was a very cold morning. The breeder opened the door and my brothers and sisters ran toward him to meet the new customer. You see, were pugs. We are born to be pets of the superior species. The humans. I don't like the humans. They scare me, but I never show it. I have 8 siblings. 4 sisters and 4 brothers. I cuddle my mom and look at my sibling beg for the customers attention,but no matter how many of them roll and jump on each other,only one of my brothers leave to their new home. My brothers and sisters run back to mom for some milk and a quick snuggle,but mom walked away every few seconds to stay distant from us.
My mom is distant because she knows she will never see us again after a few months, but when my siblings run to customers, my mum sometimes whispers "I'll always love you no matter where you go", and smiles at me. She doesn't talk to me anymore because a man and a women have been looking at me for some weeks now. One of my siblings say that their going to take me to new good home soon. I should be happy,but how can a small puppy pug like me live without her mother? Speaking of the devil. The man and women come in with big smiles on their faces. Oh no. This only means one thing. Someone is getting adopted.
My siblings glance and me. A sea of happy and jealous pug faces look at me as the man and women approach. My mom looks at me one last time,but this time as if she wants to talk. "I will always love you no matter where you go",she confesses as she gets up and sadly wonders to the corner of the room. " I will always love you too", I mumble back hoping that she heard. The man and women are now up close. Some of my siblings try to get their attention but most of them know that they are here for me. I walk toward and sit in the humans view.
They pick me up."she's precious",the women exclaims. The man smiles. "Hello little one, your so cute",he says in a high pitch human voice. "We'll take her", he says. Next thing I knew a was in a car with these strangers. I already miss my mom. After a few minutes of techno and pop music in the car, I was in their home. When they finally got settled they both put toys in my face and played with me for hours on end. "Your name is Ellie",the women tells me. I lick her and fall asleep in her arms. Maybe this won't be so bad, but I will still trade this any day so see my mom again. I soon think theres not point in complaing about not seeing mom,because me and mom are never going to see each other other again. I instead dream about my new mommy and daddy.
