Dog Fight

One day we went to the beach with our dogs Toby and Shadow. We saw another dog there. It was a huge German shepherd and I was scared that it would bite Shadow. We called Shadow to hold her while we asked the man if his dog would bite. He said, “No, she’s a girl and it will be OK.” We let her go. She ran to the dog and played with it.

Then the man asked us if the two dogs could play fetch together. We said, “Yes.” He picked up a stick and threw it in the water. The dogs ran so fast that you couldn’t see them. Shadow got the stick before the other dog. The other dog’s face turned mean. She started making low growling noises. Shadow gave the stick back to the man. He threw it again. They ran even faster. At first it looked like Shadow was going to get it, but they both got it right at the same time. Shadow caught it from one side and the other dog from the other side. Shadow pulled really hard, but it didn’t work, she didn’t get the stick. She began shaking her head and growling, I knew she was getting really angry. I wanted to go and grab Shadow away, but my mom said I couldn’t. It’s very dangerous to go between two dogs that are fighting. I felt so scared because I thought that Shadow was going to get hurt. Just then, as the other dog was chewing on the stick, she pulled and it didn’t come out.

Suddenly, Shadow let go of the stick, stepped back, and barked really loudly, “WOOF!” It was so loud that the dog got scared and let go of the stick. Shadow won!
