One day
In the pond in front of our house
No one in the family was free.I am not a good swimmer,so I told her to take Onyx with her.
How did my daughter get out of danger
My daughter swam and her leg hurt,and the situation is very dangerous.
He was the prettiest homeless dog we had ever seen at the shelter, we immediately fell in love with him and decided to give him a permanent home. Our ten-year-old daughter,Margie,named him Onyx because of his thick, shiny black coat. When we adapted him,Onyx was only ten weeks old and we had no idea that this amazing little baby dog would end up being our hero.
As he grew older, Onyx became more and more involved in our family activities.He particularly loved swimming with us on hot summer days. He would float in the river in his own rubber tube(橡皮圈).Sometimes, he would stand on the top of the tube with a big smile and show off his perfect balance. Otherwise, he would rest his front legs over the edge of the rubber tube and keep his eyes shut as he floated until he had enough of the warm sun on his thick, black coat.
Explore the clues
One day,Margie announced she was going to swim in the pond in front of our house. But it happened that no one in the family was free to go swimming with her that day. The unwritten rule in my family,regardless of swimming ability, was to have a companion in the water, I was not a good swimmer, so I said to Margie,“Take Onyx with you.”
Having heard his name,Onyx jumped to his feet and was ready for action.Margie signaled him to follow and they rushed to the water together. However, I still felt uneasy at the moment.
I went to the doorway and watched them reach the pond. They rested on the shore for a few minutes before diving into the water and started swimming side by side. Suddenly I heard Margie calling out,“Help! My leg hurts!”

Seeing my daughter struggling in the water,I dashed to the pond.The thrill rushed into my mind. Not being good at swimming, I was totally in anxiety, having no choice but to shout for help and tell her stay calm. On the contrary to how I behaved, our pretty and clever Onyx had her own decision. He swam closer to the side, invited Margie to catch her back and dragged her towards the bank. With such a good support, enduring the pain in the leg, Margie could have a short rest and take suitable measures to deal with her cram. Sensing nothing was wrong with Margie, Onyx began to swim happily ahead of Margie.
After they were safe on the shore,I hugged Onyx and my daughter tightly.I wrapped them in the thick blankets and took them to the car for the warmth. After putting them in, I praised Margie for his immediate and effective action and then patted Onyx on her head, feeling honored to have such a hero. Onyx seemed to enjoy so wonderful a moment that she wagged her tail merrily. Everyone in the family was grateful for their safe return and Onyx was given an extra treat later in the afternoon for his quick and brave reaction.Since this incident, we had a special feeling to Onyx, not just a puppy, but a closer friend and hero in our life.
