Read Alexis's Essay on Patton Below the photo's!
There are many animals in the world. Some people like cats and some people like frogs, but I like dogs and Patton is the best dog in the world. Three reasons I know this is that he is cute and not smelly, when you are sick he will snuggle with you, and he is very playful and entertaining. Let me tell you why he is the best dog in the world so sit back relax and read.
Patton
My first reason is he is cute and not smelly. Patton is as brown as chocolate, and as soft as a teddy bear. He is a Chesapeake Bay Retriever he looks like a chocolate lab but his fur is a lot curlier. He smells clean right after he gets out of the lake and he is dry in one shake.
My second reason is when you are sick he will snuggle with you. When you are just lying down and you feel so bad your moaning he will walk as if it is all his fault all sad and jump on the bed. After that, he squishes you to death to keep you warm but in the summer, it is not fun to be squished. Therefore, if you are sick it is a good thing to have a Chesapeake Bay Retriever named Patton.
My third reason is that he is very playful and entertaining. His favorite things to do are swimming, playing in the snow and lastly sleep when ever your gone he sleeps in the bed next to the window when you get home he pushes his nose on it and barks as loud as he can. When it is someone else, he barks even louder so they don’t get close to the house his people and his pets (which are actually mine). When your home you can never say the word w-a-l-k or Patton will run to the door and wait until you put on your shoes and grab the leash if you ask when you are going you have to say w or stroll but sometimes he might know what you mean. It is the same when you are going for a ride he runs to the door, waits, and waits until you put on your shoes grab the leash and do not forget the keys. When you get to the lake, he smells the water starts to bark, starts running in circles and whimpering until we get to the lake and out of the truck when you are next to the lake he runs as fast as he can in to the water and waits until you throw the bumper. When you leave, he is tired and sleeps all the way home when you get inside he runs to the bed next to the window and sleeps. You can tell Patton is very playful and entertaining.
Those are my reasons why Patton is the best dog in the world. He is cute and not smelly; he snuggles with you when you are sick, and lastly he is very playful and entertaining.
