One of the best experiences I have ever experienced was acquiring a dog. This was a dream of mine since I was little. I have absorbed numerous thoughts and important values from this experience. My life was changed for the better when I got my dog, Apollo. There were two moments that especially stood out.
My mom, my sister, and I drove over to Mancelona in the middle of a snowstorm. We couldn’t perceive anything when we walked out onto the snow with cold, crisp footprints and our breaths fogging the misty air. The powdery, white precipitation crunched as we opened the door and pushed heaps of snow aside. The breeder greeted us and showed us inside. There were three wiggling puppies on the floor.

I took Apollo out for cross-country skiing, his bright blue leash in my hand. I started out, sliding through the thick blanket of snow that covered the forest. Apollo was racing ahead but getting slowed by the vast mounds of white. As I pushed through the trail, snow falling on my head, we reached a steep hill. I slid down, unable to stop, and realized I was headed towards a frozen river. I tried to stop, but I wasn’t able to. On the ice, I slid frantically, desperately trying to reach the other side as Apollo raced across the ice too. As the tips of my skis hit the snow, the thin frozen layer of water broke behind me, and I narrowly missed getting wet. Apollo was panting, and waiting for me on the bank. We scrambled home, rushing through the thick snow on the trees.
This experience has been so amazing and wonderful. I wanted a dog my whole life. I was able to achieve my dream that I’ve had since I can remember. Apollo has changed my life and now I am a better person. I have grown into a better human being. Apollo has taught me countless !!!, and he was able to make my life more special. I have learned how to read him and how animals feel. Now I have more knowledge on how animals think and their emotions. I have had innumerable meaningful experiences with him, and I will always remember
