 Me and my sister wanted a dog for our whole lives. I think our parents knew when we were ready for one and so my dad was looking at the website. Spot was the first dog that we looked at and we really just liked her. My name is Kaylin Boyd and I'm a seventh grader and this is Spot. This was the first time we adopted a dog and the Atlanta Humane Society was great. They have cats and dogs and animals that you can adopt for your family. I remember seeing Spot when I walked in the room when we first played with her. She just really liked being comforted and I think I really liked that. The staff and the volunteers were really helpful. They gave us what we needed for her. I think after a few days she kind of warmed up to our family. The first walk we ever took with her we were so excited. I remember that first walk being really fun. She lays with me when I wake up and then we'll all go to school and work and then she'll be super excited to see us when we get home and after like school or after being with a lot of people it's good to be with someone who doesn't have to talk or just can be there. When we first got Spot at the Atlanta Humane Society they gave us the Purina dog food and that's all she's ever eaten since then. Spot's called home over the summer about Spot and her journey to our family. I wanted to give half of the profits to the Atlanta Humane Society. I wanted people to know that dogs needed homes and that adoption centers were really good because it gave them a home that they really needed. Spot has made me more of a better person. She changed me. After the family took me to their home I wasn't scared anymore. I'm happy that this will be my forever home and that I get to be with people who love me as much as I love them.
