Dog Attack



"Race all of you to Lauren's yard!" I yelled to everyone.  I sprinted all the way to Lauren's house, the little blades of grass brushing against the tips of my shoes.  "I won!" I yelled "Hey do you guys want to play with Hershey?" Lauren said "Will Hershey attack us?" asked Erika "No she won't." Lauren replied. Lauren was the first to climb over the fence, second was Lexi, then me.  "Erika are you coming or not?" asked Lexi.  Erika hesitated for a bit then pulled herself over the fence.  Once we were all in the yard Hershey bound for us.  Swiftly I put my hand to the top to the 3 foot high fence and jumped over.  Everyone made it out of Lauren's yard in one piece.  Then Lauren hopped over the fence to calm Hershey down.  "It's all right you can come in." yelled Lauren.  We all went back over the fence and this time Hershey was calm.  "Lauren can you go get her ball?" I asked "Sure just hold on to her collar so she won't run around and scare Erika." Lauren said waiting for me to grab the collar.  I walked over to grab her collar.  In a few seconds Lauren was back with a tennis ball and she handed it to me.  I threw it as far as I could and watched it fly across Lauren's yard.  She let go of the collar and Hershey as fast as lightning bolted off for it.  We through it again, and again for a period of time Lauren said, "I'm bored.  I'll be sitting in your backyard on the swing."  Lexi picked up the ball and through it.  Instead of going for the ball Hershey went for Lexi.  Hershey ran over to Lexi, fastened her teeth on Lexi's shirt and knocked her to the ground   I stood there frozen thinking about 2 weeks back.  It was a snowy winter morning, I was walking over to Lauren's house with Erika to ask her to play.  As I took my 7th step into Lauren's yard out of nowhere Hershey lunged for me.  I screamed as Hershey fastened her teeth on my coat almost biting my ear.  Lauren came running out and took Hershey to the backyard.  Then Lexi's scream took me out of my daydream and to the problem at hand.  I dashed over to Lexi and grabbed Hershey's collar to let Erika and Lexi get out of the yard.  Phew that was a close one I thought but then I noticed two eyes glaring at me.  "AAAAAHHHHHHH!" I screamed.  I ran around the yard Hershey, her mouth wide open ready to bit me at my feet.  I took a quick detour through a bush and jumped over the fence.  I checked myself for any injuries and found none. I walked Lauren, Lexi and Erika and saw Lexi had 3 scratches.  I ran into my house to get a first aid kit.  When I came out I cleaned Lexi's wounds and bandaged them.  To help Lexi forget about the incident we played a different game and pretended like it never happened.
