Paige’s writing:
Hello, my name is Paige. I work in an animal shelter. I came across the most adorable puppy ever. His name is Sparky. While I have been working with him, he has been doing very well in everything I do with him. He is a very nice puppy and I love working with him. He is loving, caring, and obedient. You will love him. He is only one month old and very precious. He is a nice little Chihuahua. He has a caramel color to him. You should come to the shelter and meet him.
