Nobody knows for sure when people began to domesticate dogs. I think that moment became the most prominent in the history of mankind. Because this was the moment when people got the most devoted friends.

Nowadays many people keep dogs as pets. And I am a lucky one to have a wonderful dog. His name is Ball. Why do we call him Ball? That is because when he was a little pup, he was very fat, hairy and funny. He jumped as a small and well shaped ball. Besides he could jump, not jump but bounce, days and nights long. Moreover, he never got tired! He always was cheerful and ready to do a lot of mischief.My mother used to say that he was as fresh as a cucumber. But I did not understand her words those days. Why cucumber? He was as bouncy as a ball! That's why we called him Ball.

Ball has a small topknot on the very top of the head. It seems as if he is wearing a funny cap. He lives in our flat and there is a problem. The point is that Ball is a real Siberian Husky. It means he needs to carry sledges or hunt. In other words he must move all the time. There is a forest near our house and I walk with him in the forest for 2 or 3 hours every day. I think this is the way out of the hunting situation! Ball is very fond of walking and it doesn't matter if it is raining or snowing. He walks in every weather! In my opinion even a dangerous hurricane can't stop him from walking. He likes to jump over pools. In wintertime he always catches snowflakes and wonders why the snowflakes melt so quickly. Together we play snowballs. And this is my favourite time!

In the forest Ball tries to hunt rabbits or foxes. I don't stop him. At least he is a hunting dog and all hunting dogs need to hunt! I teach him to behave decently everywhere and in every situation. Ball can sit, stand, walk and bring some items to me. He never backs at people. That is why our neighbours love him greatly. They say Ball is the best dog they have ever met. And I agree with them completely! Ball is the best dog in the world!

I like my dog very much. I know for sure that he likes me very much too. He is a real friend. And a friend loves at all times! Of course it doesn't matter what marks do I get at school!
