Submitted By: Sophia, age 10
Pet Name: Rosie
Sophia says: Hi my name is Sophia and I am 10 years old. My pet's name is Rosie. She is 7 years old and lives in Texas. Rosie is a red bone coon hound. We found her at a local pound in Illinois. My family gave her the name Rosie because it is kind of like my middle name Rose and whenever we would say her name we would think of me. Rosie can sit, roll over and lay down. She can also beg and dance. My favorite thing about Rosie is her face, eyes, and color. Her favorite food is anything but bananas.

Submitted By: Rachel, age 11
Pet Name: Sadie
Rachel says: My name is Rachel. I am 11 years old. My pet's name is Sadie. She is 7 months old soon to be 8 months and lives in Minnesota. She is a purebred Basenji. They have a curly pig tail and ears that stick up straight when alert. Their breed is meant to be shown in dog shows. We got Sadie from a dog breeder in Hastings. Sadie's name came to us when my brother and I were sleeping at my grandma's house. Sadie can sit, lay down, and stay. The thing I love the most about Sadie is when we come home her ears go way back and her curly tail wags like crazy. Sometimes when we come home we get lucky and she will make a noise for us which is MURRRRRR!!!!!! Also, she is always ready to play. Sadie's favorite food is a rawhide bone. Sadie's breed cannot bark and is technically not supposed to growl but she will growl at you when she has a rawhide bone. She is the cutest puppy EVER!!! :)

Submitted By: Jenny, age 12
Pet Name: Midnight
Jenny says: My pets name is Midnight. He is 1 year old and lives in Texas. He is a Guinea Pig. I really wanted a guinea pig so I saved up about $250 (my dad had to help me pay cause I was a little bit short). It was the happiest day of my life when I got him. I got his name from his color. He reminded me of night time so I named him midnight because of his black coat. He doesn't know any tricks. He is really cute and has a great personality. If he wants a head scratch he will squeak really loud, stand up on his back legs, and put his front legs on the cage. Then sometimes he thinks he is a rabbit and will hop and run around his cage really fast. He doesn't really have a favorite food but he has a favorite treat. He really likes these strawberry yogurt drops. Although, he does really likes this fiesta mix food too. Midnight is a really cute and good Guinea pig. I love him so much!!!!!
