Cameron and Mitchell were catching the bus home. It is a one hour drive home and they are always the last to get off. Every single afternoon they go fishing and take their dog, Carlos, but one day something bad happened.
On the 22nd of August, an ordinary day, Cameron and Mitchell were on the bus going home just, waiting to go fishing. When they got home, they put down their bags, grabbed their fishing gear, called the dog and left down the road to the lake where they fish.
On the way, their mum asked them to grab a few apples from the apple trees close to the lake. When they arrived at the lake, they set up their lines with squid as bait and then fished away. They let their dog wounder around, but they don’t really pay attention to him anyway. They usually caught about two fish each but this time they were lucky and caught five each.
At the lake there are huge rocks with quite a big fall into the water, which the boys jumped off. Their mum told them not to because it’s very dangerous, but of course they still do it anyway.
They grab all their stuff to get ready to go home. When they were packed up they called for Carlos, but he didn’t answer or run back to them. They were standing there for 10 minutes calling for him, but he never came back to them. They were starting to worry so they both raced home.
When they arrived home, they chucked all their stuff onto the floor, nearly snapping the fishing rods in half and yelling for their mum.
Finally when their mum hears them yelling she came running out of her room like she’s having an adrenalin rush. They told her everything that had happened and she told them to run back and check around the apple trees. As soon as she finished telling them what to do they bolted out the front door nearly tripping over their own feet. While they were looking near the lake, the mum was searching all around the yard and in the house just in case Carlos came back for a rest.
An hour had passed and they still havened found Carlos. Their mum suggested getting into the car and looking for him. They all get into the car and set off driving. They go down streets, past shops, into car parks calling for him but they still get no answer.
They were all getting tired and it was too getting late so they were going to call it a night and go home. They were just turning into their street when they saw Carlos walking down a hill into a drain.
The mum and the boys jumped out of the car and went running after him. When they caught up with Carlos they saw him sitting in the drain with six little puppies and another female dog feeding them. The mum and her two sons were shocked and also happy. The boys asked if Cameron and Mitchell could keep them because they didn’t want to split the little puppies up and also keep the mother of the puppies since she didn’t have a collar around her neck. Of course, she’d said yes because just couldn’t resist those little puppy eyes.
