"Alright class! Don't forget to visit any animal shelter over the weekend and report on it!" Mrs.Long, our 5th grade teacher called out after us. Hi, my name's Jenna. I'm 12 years old and absolutely love animals, especially dogs. That's why when we got our assignment, I thought it was perfect! I had been trying to convince my mom to let me have a dog for a year now. We had gone a few times just to look and I had fallen in love with one particular pit-bull named Titus. He was a small but muscular brown-and-white pit-bull and he was just so adorable! I looked around for him but I didn't see him in his kennel. I walked up to Kelsey, the caretaker for Titus and she said that Titus was out playing with Rocco, the dog he was kenneled with.

I smiled and whistled to him. "Titus, come!" I called. He wiggled his butt excitedly and trotted over to me and licked my face. I laughed and pet him while my mom pet Rocco. Rocco and Titus had been kenneled together since they were pups, so they were practically inseparable. I had told my mom about the project for school, and she was asking Kelsey if Titus would be able to go into school for the project. Kelsey said Titus was doing so well, but that she would come along just in case.
