A Puppy’s Meaning of Home

A Puppy’s Meaning of Home The puppy woke up in her dog house, and had a question in mind. “I love my home, but what does it mean?” she barked. She tried to answer her question by taking a guess. “ I think the meaning of home is about comfort and love!” she barked again. To find her answer, she wandered around the house to find what she needed, so she got out from her dog house and started to look around. She saw lots of furniture and items, but that’s not what she meant. She saw her owner pass by. “Hello puppy! Would you like some food?” her owner asked the puppy. The puppy barked, saying “Not right now!” Her owner took that as a no and wandered off. “ What’s the meaning of home?” she barked loudly. The owner thought it was just a squirrel, so she continued to wander off. The puppy roamed around the house to find what she’s looking for, and at the end of the day, she found her answer. “ I think the meaning of home is about love, comfort, memories, the time you spend with your family, and intangible things.” She barked again, and she happened to find her answer, that she was cheerful and happy, and she finally said, “ Home is a place where there is love, comfort, memories, and the time you spend with your loved ones. The End.
