There is nothing better than having a pet store close by. Since I moved here to the United States (legally), I have gone shopping to the nearest pet store (Petco) on Washington Blvd. in Clarendon. The walk was very nice, and when we arrived to the store there was always water and a few treats. While my Masters were looking for my food to buy, I was looking at the toys, the clothes, and treats, and smelling the butts of other dogs. There were always dogs there with their owners so it was fun for me.
On Saturday we went to the pet store, and I had the sad surprise of finding the store half empty; I said to myself: something is not right here, this is not good.
So we bought all that we needed, and we were leaving, when we saw a sign hanging on their front door that said that the store would close its doors this Friday...forever! It was a shock for me. At that moment I started thinking: And now, what will become of these long walks to the store? Where will they buy my food? I will not be able to go to the shop to choose my toys, clothes, treats, etc.
My masters told me that we will still go on walks, but without going to the shop. About my food, they told me that they will go to another store by car, and as for my toys, they said that occasionally they would take me to another store in the car to see the latest canine fashion. I thought to myself: What do you mean occasionally? Oh well, that news makes me sad because I really had fun walking to the store. Now it's going to be different. My masters said that it’s going to be the same, but I know it’s not true.[ Spanish ]No hay nada mejor que tener un pet store cerca a casa. Desde que me mude aquí a los Estados Unidos (legalmente) he ido de compras al pet store más cercano a casa, y ese quedaba en Washington, Blvd. En Clarendon. La caminata era muy bonita y cuando llegaba al store siempre había agua y unos treats. Mientras mis amos veían la comida que me comprarían yo miraba los juguetes, la ropa, bocaditos, olía algunos perros que estaban ahí. Siempre había perros ahí con sus amos, era divertido.
El sábado nos fuimos al pet store y nos dimos la triste sorpresa de encontrar el store medio vacío. Yo me dije: algo pasa aquí, esto no esta bien.
Compramos lo que necesitábamos y al momento de retiramos vimos un papel colgado en la puerta que decía que el store cerraría sus puertas este viernes...por siempre. Fue un shock total para mí. En ese momento me puse a pensar: Y ahora que será de esas caminatas largas al store? Donde compraran mi comida? Ya no podré ir a la tienda a escoger mis juguetes, mi ropa, mis bocaditos, etc.
Mis amos me han dicho que seguiremos con las caminatas, pero sin ir a la tienda. Acerca de mi comida ellos me dijeron que iremos a otro store en el auto, sobre mis juguetes me dijeron que iríamos de vez en cuando a otro store para ver también lo último de la moda canina. Yo pensé: Qué quiere decir con de vez en cuando?. En fin esa noticia me ha puesto triste por que en realidad era divertido caminar al store. Ahora será diferente. Mi master me han dicho que será igual, pero se que no es verdad.Labels: clarendon, dog, girasol, perro, pet store, petco, sunflower
