Fourteenth Annual Reading Rainbow Contest

Snickers

After several hours of walking they found a small farm.

“That’s Rex, the watch dog.  Be careful around him, he’s really good at his job,” whispered Tom as he pointed at a large chocolate lab.

Suddenly Jack yelled, “Samantha!”

A large squirrel popped out of the ground.
“Yes?”

“This is Snickers, take good care of him,” Jack demanded.

“Yes sir,” Samantha saluted.

But before Snickers could climb into the burrow, a woman grabbed him.

The lady said, “You shouldn’t be here.”
She put Snickers into the back seat of her Charger and drove him to an animal shelter.
