'Areo Goes Missing'

I have included a cute story my daughter wrote last week.  She had a little help from me with the grammar fix ups, but 90% of the story is hers.

AREO GOES

MISSING

By: Kaylee Glover

Chapter 1

Today was the day. Daisy was going to the pet shop to get her very own dog.  She saw so many cute little dogs but suddenly right there in front of her was the cutest puppy of all.  She fell in love with him right away.  He didn’t have a name yet but she already knew she was going to call him Aero. 

Chapter 2

The little girl loved Aero.  She played with him in her backyard everyday. One day when he was outside by himself he got of his leash. He started sniffing around the fence.  Then he noticed a space under the fence.  Being a little puppy he got curious and went under.

 Soon he noticed other interesting things.  He chased a beautiful butterfly and a green grasshopper.  Soon he had run so far away he didn’t even notice how he couldn’t see his home anymore.  Aero was lost and scared. 

Chapter 3

Daisy came into the house crying.  Aero was missing.  Her mom was busy doing the laundry in the basement and she had to act fast.  She picked up the phone and called the police.  The lady on the other end of the phone said the police don’t have enough officers to help people look for their lost dogs.  Daisy was very disappointed.

The lady at the police station was talking to one of the policemen on the phone.  She told him the cute story of the little girl who wanted help looking for her lost puppy.  The policeman had recently lost the best police dog ever and decided to go and see the little girl anyway since he was close by.  He knew how sad it made him feel when he lost his dog too.

Chapter 4

Aero was sitting by a fence and he was hungry and scared.  Just then a big monster came at him. 

“Help!” Aero called out, but all that came from his mouth was a tiny puppy bark. Then he noticed it wasn’t a big monster but just a bigger dog. 

CHAMP THE POLICE DOG

“Are you lost?” said the big dog. ”

“Yes,” squeaked Aero who was still a little scared.

“My name is Champ and I’m a police dog, or at least I was. I was chasing a bad guy a few weeks ago, and before I knew it I was very far from my policeman.”

  “Then why aren’t you with the police now?” asked Aero.

“Well I was trained to stay where I was when I got lost but nobody came to get me.  Since I didn’t catch the bad guy, I figured they gave up on me and didn’t want me anymore.  So I decided I would help other dogs on my own.”

“Can you help me find my way home?”

“Yes!” said Champ. “I am a trained sniffer and can track anything or anybody. Follow me.”

 Chapter 5

Officer Joe pulled his police car up to Daisy’s house.  On the front porch Daisy was crying her eyes out.

“You miss your dog don’t you?” Officer Joe said to a startled Daisy.

“Yes.  Are you here to help me find my doggie?”

“If you have a picture of him I’ll keep an eye out for him. Okay?”

Just then Daisy looked past Officer Joe and screamed with delight.

Coming along the sidewalk was Aero and a big German Sheppard dog leading him home.  Officer Joe turned around just then too.

“Champ.  It’s you.  Oh my, I thought I would never see you again.  You were the best police dog I ever had.”

Champ was very happy to see his master and to know that he has really still wanted.

Aero was very happy to see Daisy and ran right up and jumped into her arms.

“I can’t believe this,” said Daisy.

“Well I think we both got a happy ending out of this,” remarked Officer Joe.

He then said good-bye to Daisy and Aero and put Champ back in his police car where he belonged.
