My Dog

On my birthday, my dad gave me the most wonderful gift—a

male golden retriever. His name is Jiji. He helps us keeping

our house.

Jiji has beautiful brown fur, making him even more adorable.

He has a long tail and a big body that adds to his majestic

appearance. One of his favorite things is having his belly

rubbed, which always makes him wag his tail with

excitement. Every day, I take him for a walk around the

neighborhood because he loves exploring and being

outdoors. His playful and friendly nature makes him loved by

everyone he meets.
