A dog’s story
My name is Robbie. I was born on a farm with my brothers and sisters.
One day, a man and two little boys came to the farm.
“Which dog do you want ” the man asked.
“We want that one!” the boy said. They chose me.
They drove me to my new home in the city. The boys
promised they would look after me very carefully,
and they did.They fed me, play with me and walked
me every day. Then one day, they got a computer.
After that, the boys played computer games all the time. They did not play with me or feed me any more.
Eventually the boys’ father took me to a pet centre. He told the staff that his boys loved their computer more than me. The centre gave me lots of food and took good care of me. One day, a nice girl called Emma came to visit.
“Do you want to come home with me ” she asked.
“Woof!” I said. She smiled and took me home.
Emma feeds me and takes me for walks every day.
I know I will live here happily for the rest of my life.

How sayings about dogs have changed
In the old days, people kept dogs, but they used them for hunting or to help with farm work. Dogs often had a very difficult life. So we have sayings such as “to lead a dog's life” or “as sick as a dog”.
