My Lovely Eddie

Since rainy was a little girl, she likes dogs very much. Therefore, she wishes to have a dog to accompany her. However, her living place and financial conditions do not support her to own a dog. Thus, she feels very disappointed.

One day, Rainy able to own a dog because her father decided to move to a bigger house and he needed a dog to take care of the house. After she knew it, she was so happy and excited and started to do research about dogs. Through the research, she found that Golden Retriever is a very nice dog. It looks cute while it is small and looks pretty while it grows up. Thus, Rainy decided to buy Golden Retriever. After she went to so many pet shops, she found Golden puppies in one of the pet shops. They look cute and nice. Without thinking, rainy decided to buy one of the male golden puppies from the pet shop.

Before the pet shop owner send the puppy to rainy, she was so excited and get ready with all the necessary stuffs to welcome the puppy. When they sent the puppy to rainy, she founds that they took the wrong puppy to her. Thus, rainy insists to change the puppy and went to the pet shop to choose again. At last she found it and took it home by herself.

After she brought it home, she bathed it and placed it in the cage. Rainy and her family discussed to give it a name. Everyone has different ideas, rainy father want to call it money, because money come money come. But rainy did not like this name and she was suggested to call it as Eddie. So, to be fair, they let the dog to choose the name itself. At last, the dog chooses Eddie by picking up the paper.

In the first day, Eddie still unable to adapt the new environment and it is scare to be alone, so he started to bark all the night. Rainy worried that his bark will awake her neighbors, she tried to comfort Eddie and stay beside it all the night. Because of that, Rainy realized that dog is nice to see but difficult to take care.

After few days, Eddie started to adapt the new environment and it stayed happily with rainy. Even though rainy feel very tired to take care of it but it brings a lot of happiness to rainy as well.

Every day, they play together. One of their games is hide and seek. For example, Rainy will throw a ball to Eddie and ran to hide in a place. Then, Eddie will pick up the ball and try to find rainy everywhere and give the ball to her.

Eddie is a very smart but naughty dog. It able to understand lots of human’s commands. For example, sit, hand, eat, go gaigai (go out have a walk), and so on. When rainy shouts eat, it ran to rainy immediately because it likes to eat. Besides, it likes to go gaigai as well. When rainy said go gaigai, it came to rainy happily.

Sometimes it likes to destroy the house as well. For example, it likes to bite the door, cabinet and even underwear from the toilet. When rainy realizes that it was trying to destroy the house, she scolded it and it will show its pity and innocent face to rainy. This make rainy feel funny and can’t angry with it.

After few month, rainy started busy with her part time job. Because of that, rainy has neglected Eddie. Without notice, Eddie was infection with unknown illness. Rainy was so worried and send it to the veterinary immediately. However, Eddie was not recovered because of the stupid veterinary simply gave it some irrelevant medicine. Rainy tried to send it to the famous veterinary as well. But they can’t cure it as well because it is too late. Luckily, Eddie was not knock down by the illness, it still alive even though the illness still with him.

After Eddie infected with the illness, rainy was very sad and she felt very guilty because she didn’t take good care on it after she work. Because of that, rainy stop working and always accompany it.

One day, rainy move to new house and they held an open house party. Because of that, rainy’s parents sent Eddie to the pet shop for a day. After they finished the party, they only went to the pet shop to fetch Eddie. When Eddie reached home, it was started to vomit and diarrhea blood. Rainy was so shocked when she saw Eddie vomit blood. Without any delay, she sends it to the famous veterinary. Eddie was recovered after it took the medicine. Unfortunately, after one week, the sickness comes again… Eddie vomit and diarrhea blood again. It is really a good dog because it tried not to diarrhea in the car and bears it until it gets out from the car. Rainy sent him to the veterinary again and let him stayed in the hospital. In the night, rainy dreams Eddie. Eddie told rainy that he has recovered…. But in the morning, the phone wakes rainy up… her mother told rainy that Eddie was passed away last night. Rainy couldn’t accept it because she just dreams about Eddie and it is fine in the dream. After Eddie passed away, rainy cried for many days, and she feel very sad because Eddie passed away just three day before of her birthday… Because of Eddie, rainy had spent the saddest birthday.

Till now.. Rainy still miss and love Eddie very much. She will never forget it because it is her 1^st dog.
