A Day with Buddy
Tommy wakes up early in the morning. He stretches and yawns as the sunshine streams through the windows. He gets out of bed and brushes his teeth. His dog, Buddy, wags his tail excitedly, eagerly waiting for breakfast. Tommy fills Buddy's bowl with dog food and fresh water. After breakfast, they head to the backyard. Tommy throws a small red ball, and Buddy fetches it enthusiastically. They play fetch for a while before deciding to go for a walk. They roam around the neighborhood, enjoying the fresh air and warm sunshine. As the day winds down, Tommy gives Buddy a pat on the head. He loves his dog and takes care of him every day.
