Our Stray Stories

Based on a true story Seagulls and blackbirds flew across the dark gloomy, cloudy sky. In the city dump poor unhappy, stray dogs were scavenging for food or leftover scraps. Each dog was as skinny and bony as each other, and poor and lonely as each other too. Unfortunately one of the stray dogs didn’t have any luck finding food. He crossed the busy motorway feeling helpless and miserable. The stray dog slept behind some bushes not to faraway from the city dump. He looked at the beautiful moon which was a gorgeous pearl in the pitch black velvet sky. The next day he planned on going to the city dump again. He reached the incredibly busy motorway which was now busier than ever. The stray dog felt helpless, frightened and scared. He didn’t know when to go, but eventually the dog decides to dash through the busy road hoping he will make it unharmed. BANG! A busy truck driver ran over the poor stray dog, the truck driver did not stop for he was far too busy. On the other side of the road was a skinny stray dog. The dog ran to the injured dog and dragged him to the footpath. Over the days the stray dog looked after the injured dog, they became friends and spent the rest of their life’s together as stray dogs, though now they were a little bit happier as stray dogs since they knew someone was looking out for them.

Stray, by Rawinia Chapter One: The sky was a torrent of darkness as the stray dog, scavenged around aching all round. Its body was skin and bone from the lack of food it’s had over the last few years. Chapter Two: He slowly wandered away from the dump, he was a snail compared to the cars on the busy highway, and he ran across the road and got run over by a rude truck driver who yelled out “Get out of the way you ugly mutt” not worried by the fatal medical issues he has. Chapter Three: Another stray dog was overlooking the incident and so alarmed she put her own life on the line to go and see the wounded dog. After she had pulled him of the road she treated him like he was her pup cared for him and loved him. Chapter Four: One day just like a pup and a mother the injured dog was well again and they had to go their separate ways they knew that they would never forget each other.

Stray by Alliyah It was a cold and grey evening and the moon shone in the twilight. A dog was lurking in the dirty crooked dump searching for any leftovers. It was a Labrador called Pascual. He was lonely as anyone with no family or hope. Just then, another dog was creeping in the dark gloomy dumpster. He was called Chavealonzo. They were both lonely and Pascual trusted Chavealonzo and had a stroll around the busy city. Chavealonzo fell asleep. But Pascual was wandering ‘round the motorway. He was trying to go back to the stinky old dump. Pascual hindered the roaring racketing road then... CRASH!! The truck was a monster roaring in the city. No one noticed a poor dog lying in the dark cold road. Chavealonzo raced on the road to help his loyal friend. He dragged him in the footpath. Chavealonzo was begging and praying. He felt asleep and the time passed quickly as the night was all misery. Morning passed and all that sadness sped away. Chavealonzo was shocked and mesmerised that... PASCUAL WAS ALIVE!! It was a glorious moment! They became best friends and they lived happily ever after THE END ...based on a true story...
