Blog 3: My dog Raquel

Raquel was my first mascot; she is a mongrel dog who is eleven, (nearly twelve) years old, being born the 17 of February of 2010. She was being given away by a classmate in an event that was held two times a year in my school. She was the last one left of the litter, and because I really wanted to have a pet, I annoyed my parents until they gave up and let me take Raquel home.

She is a very small dog that grow so much fur, that when it’s not properly cut, she can appear to be bigger of what she really is, what is wonderful in winter because it helps her so much with the cold, but awful in summer because of the high temperatures.

She has been an important part of my life, being with me with in almost half my life, the half that has been the most important, due to me being too young to remember anything from the first half, and the second half being the most difficult at the moment, and although she causes a lot of problems at the start, now it’s a super calm and cute dog.
