参考范文：
Suddenly there was a sound in the bush.Out of the growth flew this battered dog right into my father’s arms.Spider had leaped over the tennis court fence with great force and certainty.My father’s eyes shone， and the old lady and I stood there with tears in our eyes.He kept licking my father’s face and making choking noises.He smelt dreadful.We wrapped him in an old blanket and I held him on my lap on the way back.He never once took his eyes off my father as we drove home.Every so often I received a lick of gratefulness.
Once we got home， we had the task of getting all the prickles off him.Before he was put in a tin tub， we gently cleaned him up with soap.Spider stood still through all this as my father also examined his teeth and ears.Spider spent the rest of his years on the front porch， content and satisfied， always in wait for my sister and me coming home from school where he would give us a lot of licks to make sure we were all right.He then waited for my father by the garage door.We never left him anywhere alone again.
