Personal Narrative: Pitbulls

Decent Essays
When I was 9 and I got home from school I went walking up to my house and open the door and I saw this black with white dog I just ran and then he was trying to catch me and I ran till I got tired and then stopped. Then my brother tells me to stop running and starts saying that he was our new dog. I was pretty mad because he was trying to catch me,but I never had a dog so I didn't know what to expect or what I was gonna feel,but then in like ten minutes later I started playing with him giving him snacks. And touching his fur was really fun because he was so soft. But one thing that I really hated was that people always said that pitbulls were mean and mine was a pitbull and there the best thing ever.

But then in a few days later
