Staten Island's Best Day Ever
Staten Island was no ordinary Goldendoodle. He was the fluffiest, happiest pup in the neighborhood. But there was one day every summer that made him wiggle with joy more than any other: the Fourth of July BBQ at his owner's house.
As soon as the big red picnic table was set up and the smell of sizzling hot dogs filled the air, Staten Island knew magic was about to happen.
The backyard was buzzing with laughter as kids ran around playing tag, waving sparklers, and chasing bubbles. Staten Island joined right in, bouncing between little feet, his tail wagging like a flag in the breeze
.
But the best part? The food!
Hot dogs on plates meant hot dog bits on the ground. Watermelon slices in tiny hands meant juicy pieces rolling off plates. And Staten Island was quick!
"Aha!" He snatched a little chunk of hot dog before it could get lonely in the grass.
"Ooo, sweet and sticky!" A bite of watermelon landed right by his paw!
His owner laughed as Staten Island enjoyed his feast, licking his chops with pure delight. "You sure love Fourth of July, buddy!
"
As the sun set and the sky exploded with fireworks, Staten Island curled up on the picnic blanket, belly full and heart happy. He sighed a big, contented sigh
.
The best day ever… until next year!
