Vergara Marissa February 12,2009 Period 2/3 Dog? Dear Mom, Can I please have a dog? I want it so bad. I want it because he can protect us when we’re sleeping. Also when you’re alone at the house you won’t have to be all alone you’ll have the dog with you. Dogs also can scent before an earthquake is going to happen. This is why those reasons are great! When you’re sleeping when someone breaks in they can start barking and chase he/she all over the place until he/she goes out the door. When you’re alone the dog can keep you company. When an earthquake is about to happen your dog can scent it that is good in many ways because we can get everybody together and get under a table to be safe and it gives you a heads up on what’s going to happen. I know you don’t want to get a dog because it’s too much money, but I promise you that if we get a dog I’ll show you that I deserved it. I know the dog makes little surprises, but I’ll clean it up and train the dog to not do that and to go outside to do that. And I also know it’ll get tiring feeding him but I’ll do everything that I can do to help. So now that you heard all of that can we please keep the dog, oops? So can we; just think about it. Love, Your lovely daughter Marissa
