Last Sunday, my parents decided to go out and have a fun day. I packed everything at home, including food, water and tools. We brought honey, eggs, bread, corn, steak, sugar, salt, mushrooms, marshmallows and all kinds of snacks. We finished packing everything at 12:00 noon. Dad drove us to a park near the countryside.
After we arrived, we found a barbecue grill and sat down. We put down our belongings. Mum put her handbag next to her. When we were having fun at the barbecue site, a stray dog walked by us and looked at our food. It looked at it for a while and it took it away. Dad realized that Mom’s handbag was gone and felt anxious and quickly told us. Mom and I also felt anxious after we heard Dad saying Mom’s handbag was gone. We put down our food and searched for it. I looked back and saw the stray dog take it. Mom ran towards the stray dog and instead of shouting at it, she carefully patted its head and it gave the bag back to us.

We felt happy and it started to follow us around. Because it was very hungry, so we fed it some sausages and steak. It jumped with joy around us and licked my hands. I asked Mom and Dad, “Can we pet this dog?” Then they smiled at me and said “yes”. I jumped into the air with a very happy feeling. We named it Hungry because it has a big stomach which means that it can eat a lot of food.
After we petted it for a month, we found that Hungry is playful, energetic and clever. Hungry became one of our new family members this year and I can have more experience of petting a dog in my daily life.
