Collies. I saw it this beautiful spring morning. On my door was a note. Collies, it said. I tried to rip it off, but it wouldn’t budge. It was glued on. Who would do such a thing? I opened my door, but there was no one in sight. Who would do such a thing? I thought as I changed. And what are Collies? I decided to do some research. Ready with a mega milkshake, I began to study. And oh, did I learn a lot. Collies are a type of dog! There are many types of Collies. One of them, the border collie, is the smartest dog in the world. The bearded collie looks so funny, and the smooth collie looks nice and elegant. The rough collie is filled with fur! I also learned about another type of dog, which is very close to a collie. It is called a Sheltie. It is a smaller version of a collie. That gave me an idea.

30 minutes later, I came back with a dog on a leash. You guessed it: I had bought a dog! And what type of dog exactly? Why, a Sheltie, of course! I decided to name my Sheltie. I thought of my favorite things. Oh, I love pizza! And what is my favorite pizza shop? Well, Domino’s, of course! So, I settled on that, Domino. Oh, how I love Domino! We spend all our time together! And that is how collies became my favorite animal.
