As the saying goes, “Our perfect companions never have fewer than four feet”, however I understood this quote too late. I was about seven years old when we got a puppy as a gift from my grandpa. The puppy was the most beautiful grey male Schnauzer in the world. I became the happiest seven year old, ready to play with the puppy, after I spent a little time with him I named him Max because of his personality. I would joyfully play and feed him every day. I even taught him tricks, he was the best dog someone could ever have.
But as time passed and I grew older, the time I spent with Max became less every time, due to school activities and spending time with friends. Now, I was about twelve years old, within the five years that passed we had gotten two more dogs; a Chihuahua named Mickey and a Poodle named Minnie. One day as a favor my father took care of two Pit Bulls, at night we got the two small dogs and put them inside our house, but left Max outside with the Pit Bulls. Leaving Max behind became the worst mistake we could ever make. In the morning, I woke up with such tragic news that Max was found dead. My heart instantly broke, I felt devastated when I had discovered what had happened. After I had cried a river, suddenly, rage grew in me, I wanted to hurt the dogs but that wouldn’t bring him back. We quickly returned the dogs back to their owner because of what they had done to Max. We had lost a great part of our family, he was the best dog and companion a family could have. I suddenly felt a great amount of regret and sadness, because I didn’t spent time with him anymore and didn’t appreciate him. The loss of Max made me appreciate an animal more and realized that they are the perfect companion you will ever have.
