My dog Jazzmine

I came home from school on a Tuesday and ran into the backyard to find my dad to ask him about my dog Jazzmine. When I asked what the doctors had said he said that my dog has genetic kidney disease and will not live as long as we thought that she would. I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes.I ran inside to find my dog. She was laying down half asleep. I picked her up and brought her upstairs into my room. As lay there with Jazzmine I remembered when we first got her. We went to where the puppies are dropped off (the cargo area). We literally waited there for about seven hours! When they called our names to come up to the counter to get our puppy we all got excited and ran over. When they pointed to the cage that our new puppy was in we looked and the puppy was jumping up and down as if she knew that we were her new owners/family. When my mom got home from work I asked her if our family knew about Jazzmine and her disease but she said no so i decided to call them  and tell them. When I called up my cousins they said not to worry and maybe a miracle would happen. That made me feel so much better. I also remembered when my nanas dog passed away. It was about 17 years old and the people who were painting the house left the gate open and the dog got out. Unfortounalty he got hit by a car. Now I know how my nana felt.
     I cherrish the time that I have left with my dog Jazzmine. I spend as much time with her as I can. My sister who is eight years old plays just a little too rough with my dog. She is a small puppy so you have to be gentle , I would tell her. She never listens. When my dog Jazzmine passes away I will of course miss her very much and so will my family. She will always be in our hearts my parents tell me and my sister.
