There was a boy who always wished to have a pet with which he could play,run and whom he can feed with his own hands. One of his school friend who was also living in the same locality had a dog. It was a German Shephed. The boy asked his parents to buy a dog for him but his parents said that they cant afford a dog. The boy got very upset, but did not lose hope. He went to his friend's house and asked him to come with him to find a puppy. Friend asked him that where can you get a puppy. The boy said that he always see little cute puppies when he goes to school. Friend agreed and both went out on their gear bicycles. They searched every where they could but they did not find a puppy. So they decided to retreat. While coming back to home, in the evening they heard voices of some puppies. They saw that 3 puppies were chasing their mother to get her milk. They were fighting with each other. But there was also a fourth puppy who was not running. He seemed to be lazy or ill. Boy decided to take the fourth puppy with him. He took the puppy in his right hand and held the bicycle's handle with left hand and rode towards his home. He prepared a house for the puppy with cardboards. The boy started rising early in morning for the puppy. The time was passing happily for both. The boy named the dog as "blackie" because it was totally black with a little white spot under the neck.But there was one thing that the boy noticed late was that the dog,s legs were not straight. The dog was not physically as fit as other dogs. Blackie could not run as fast as othet dogs. But then also it was loved by the boy. It had become very famous in the locality because of his unique walking style. Blackie was kept near the main gate of the house with a chain tied around its neck. Many times blackie had broken the chain and started playing with other dogs or the kids in the locality. One day he broke the chain and ran behind another dog and went so far that blackie never returned. Blackie wanted to make his own family. He no longer wanted to be chained. The boy searched him everywhere but could not find him. One day a boy from the locality came and said that he saw blackie. Dog catchers took him away to leave somewhere else. But some says that he died while fighting with other dogs. But the boy still hopes that blackie is alive and happy with his family and will come back one day.
