  1. If I was a dog and I was chosen as a Christmas present I would feel like my dogs feel , crazy ! When I first here that I would be leaving my family I would feel sad , but at the same time happy because I would not wait to see the world . Then when I am leaving and I was put into a box under a tree I would feel a little creuse about my new home . Finally , when I wake up in the morning and see a boy named Sam love me I would know I fond the right house and I knew it was just perfect.

    If I was a puppy, my name would be spot. I would feel sad to leave my family to go to another family. I would also be excited to meet my new family. I would not wait to be opened and for the whole family to be so excited. It would be fun to meet my new family . we would play all day. It would be fun to be to be a puppy.

  3. I would feel really sad saying goodbye to my family! Although I would be excited to meet my new family. I would also be scared being inside a little box. I would be all dark, and so small that I wouldn't be able to move. Then on Christmas morning, a little girl would be so excited to meet me, and so would her parents. They would open up the box, and see me. I would have a red ribbon around my neck, and be so soft and cuddly. Everyone would cuddle me, and give me lot's of attention. I would miss my real family, but I would love my new family!

  5. Hello, I am Andy da puppy, greatest christmas present in this world. It all started on December 8, 2014, when my mom told me I was going to live with another family. Do you know what I asked her? Not "Will I see you again?", or "Am I going to be okay?". I "WILL THEY HAVE BACON!!??"! Eventually I figured out that (thankfully) they did have bacon, but at the time I was in a cardboard box that my mom put me in. When she did this, I got really angry, and said,"What am I? A CHRISTMAS PRESENT?!". I forgot that I actually WAS a christmas present. Finally, the best part of my story, when I met my family (that has bacon). The box I was in suddenly opened, and I saw the coolest person I would ever meet. His name was Bob, and he has taken great care of me. That's my Christmas story!

  6. First, I would go to my brothers and sisters and lick them all over. Then, I would go to my parents and jump on them and lick them all over.then the person would take me away and I would bark good bye to my family and tell them that I would never forget them. Next, the person would take me to his sleigh. He would put me in a big sack where I could hear hooves pawing on the ground. Suddenly I started rising up from the ground and then we were off. We were flying. After what felt like one minute I was put in a purple polka dotted box and someone in a red suit carried me down a chimney. Then he would set me under the tree and I would wait until that morning. When I woke up that morning I would hear footsteps coming down the stairs and running to the tree. Then I heard the ripping of paper and I saw light. I saw a beautiful room and a little girl with her mouth open and her eyes popping out of her head. She started screaming,"I got a puppy from Santa Mommy and Daddy!" She picked me up and said, we are going to be best friends" and she named me buttercup because of my fur. I knew that this was going to be the best family ever.

  7. If I was a puppy, and I was going to leave my family to be a present,how I would say good bye is I would lick my mom and dad's face like crazy. When I would be in a box I would just curl up in side. When my new owner opens me I would lick her and bark, and run around like crazy. I would be a happy pup.

  8. If I was a puppy, and I was a christmas present for a little girl, I would be barking like crazy. (That's what my dog did when we got her). I'm finally getting to be free! No chores, more treats, and more fun. All of my fun has just begun. Presents, tricks, love, and treats galore! I'll sure miss mom and dad though. I bet I will see them later in life. I hope they will be nice. I am so excited to be adopted!

  9. I would love to be a puppy in christmas. I would not like to say bye to my mom and dad, but puppies forget easily. I would have air holes and feet holes in my box so I can run up the stairs to the kid(s) then sit down and act like a present. Then they would open up the present and I would jump out and lick them.

  10. My name is squiggly! And Santa just chose me as a present for a little boy! I am so excited I will finally have a forever home! But the trip might be a little rough, because I will be stuck inside a box, that will NOT be comfortable. And I hope the boy will be on the nice list, and I hope he will give me treats! I love treats!! I also hope he has just one other dog so they can be my friend. But I do not care if he has another dog or not. I also need a big yard because I was named squiggly for a reason, you know. This is going to be the best Cristmas ever!!

  12. My name is bon bon. Saying goodbye to my family would be the hardest part. But I know I will be a good doggy for my new owner. I hope that my new owner is nice and plays with me. When I am in a box under a christmas tree I would try to stay still. I would give puppy kisses to people. That is how I would act to my new owner.

  13. I would be sad at leaving my family at first, but would be excited to finally have a master who pays attention to me. (4 brothers, 3 sisters.) Also, I would be able to explore something else than our closed in yard. The men that took me tried to put me in a box, but I squirmed, so they let me go. Although I didn't want to go into the box before, when I saw the treat, I changed my mind. I was jostled in the truck, and I fell asleep. I woke up and, I saw, through the peepholes in my box, a tree. Just then, the box open, and a kid squealed when it saw me. That was the best Christmas ever!

  15. First I would go to my brothers and sisters and play one last game of tug a war. Then I would go to my parents and lick them all over then as santa came and got I would bark a final farewell to my family. Then he would put me in my box with a bow on top. after that he would put me in the sack with all the other toys There would be another puppy I would have a long conversation about getting a new owner until we each got to each other's new owners house. Then santa would slide down the chimney with me in his arm. then he would slide me under the tree. Where I will wait until morning when I meet my new family. When I wake up in the morning the family the will be crying tears of joy when they see me. They will name me tommy. That will be the best christmas ever!!!!

  16. First, I would feel sad but excited at the same time because It would be sad to leave your family and at the same time you're excited to meet your new family. Second, If I were placed in a box I would have no idea what is happening at that moment. Also if I were placed under a tree I would have no clue what the tree was. Finally, when I was opened up and I meet my new family I would give them all sorts of kisses and jump all over them. That is what I would do if I were a puppy as a present for christmas.

  17. To say goodbye to my family I would say it like this, "Bye see you never!" The reason why I would say my goodbye like that is because I would be so happy to have a new owner! I would hate being in a weird box with santa wrapping paper! And under the tree, Um... Don't even think about putting me under there! I will bark like CrAzY! Oh, and sorry about my barking if I ruin the surprise for the special kid. I would be really happy to see my new owner! I would like him/her a lot! I would be so happy to be out of that boring box! Uggggg it smelt so bad! It literally smelt like sandpaper! My owner named me spot! I love that name!! I love my owner so much! That would be the best Christmas ever!

  19. If i was chosen I would feel exited because I would have a family to like with. I wouldn't really care what house I am in. That would be the best christmas ever for me and my family.

  20. I am a puppy named Growlithe, and I have been chosen as a furever friend for a little boy. It would be hard to say bye to them, but I would stay strong because I know they will be rooting for me. I would not like being in the box so bad that the elves would have to tape the top on. My owner would love me so much since I am a pug, and who doesn't like pugs? I think nobody. When my owner opens the box he will yell "IT'S A PUG!!!!!!!!" We would live happily ever after.

  21. If I was a puppy, I would be named Chubby Face. I would say, "Bye I'm getting another family." I will be happy to leave because I get a new family. I would be put in a sparkly pink box under a Christmas Tree. Then,when it is Christmas, I will bark so loud that my owner will yell back at me. Then, I will chew on my owner's hand for fun. Finally, I would probably pee on the rug because I am excited. That what I would do if I was a Christmas puppy.

  22. If I was a dog and was picked as a christmas present, I would be sooooooo sad leaving my parents and sister. It would be fun riding in Santa's sleigh. On Christmas morning, I would jump out of my box and leap toward my owner, and I would be so happy. I would jump in the wrapping paper and play with my owner, who would be really nice. Then we would have a Christmas party together. It would be a fun Christmas.

  23. If I were a dog... Most likely it wouldn't be hard for me to leave my family in less I were there for probably the minimum would be three years. If I where a christmas gift I would hopefully stay in a room and I would be the last present. So I would not have to stay in a box the whole time. I would be so happy to meet my new owner! They would be amazing! That would be my most amazing day!

  24. If I was a dog going to my new owner I would be very sad because that means that I would have to leave my wonderful,loving, and caring family.Although I would be leaving my family I would make a effort to try to look on the bright side and think,my new family will also be loving and caring.Also that would mean I would make a little girl's christmas! On Santa's sleigh I would be sound asleep until I heard the bang 9in my ear when I hit ground in the evening.Then when I met my new owner I would leap into her arms.

  28. If I was a dog picked out as a present, I would be named Stroll Darry. I would be so happy. First, I would get my family's email, so I could tell them when I has coming to visit. Next, I would put myself under the tree in a big box with golden wrapping paper and a big red bow. Inside the box would be confetti cannons. When the kids opened it they would shot lots of colorful confetti . Finally, my new family would have a 10 year old girl named sally, a 5 year old boy named max, a mother, and a father. Max Sally there mother there father and me would be the best family ever, but I would still visit my true family and their new family's too.

  29. If I was a dog, and a present for someone, I would be sad, nervous, and excited. I would be sad about leaving my family, I would be nervous about meeting my new family, and I would be excited about getting lots of attention. I would be wrapped in a scarlet bow. When was is time to get carried under the tree, I would be barking and kicking like crazy! When the time finally came for me to be unwrapped, I would have to prepare to be scared. When I met my new family I would then be as happy as ever.

  30. I am a dog and my name is BeastMode. I am a baby house-hound. My Daddy: Basset, and my Momma, Lucy (She is a cat) are all there waving to me. I am feeling no emotion,because I have no idea what's going on. What's this white stuff? Probably, the cotton candy, I guess. Ooooh, Nice box, I like your jib, jolly fat man. Thanks for the dog treat. Okay I'm tired. I wake up tomorrow in some snotty toddler hands. He is holding me super gentle. Move so I can lick your face. I still have no idea what's going on. Okay, He's strangling me. Ahhhh-wait no its a spiky collar it says um, BeastMode.
