"Have a good summer everyone!" the teacher yelled. Mandy picked up her book bag. She ran out of the school and waited. James came rushing out. "To the clinic!" he said as the two rand own the street. She stepped in the door. "Hi dears!" said Jean the receptionist for the clinic.

"Hi" Mandy said and looked at the waiting room a small dog was sniffing her pants. She wanted to reach down and pet it but, she knew not to pet a animal at the vet unless a vet said it was ok. She didn't want to get bit by a nervous dog. "Hi cutie." She said and looked down at the dog. It yipped then trotted to it's owner. They walked into the back were Dr. Emily was feeling a rabbit's leg. She greeted the pair, "Can you feed Sam? Also your father wants you." She nodded and her and James fed Sam the dog. She picked up the heavy yellow bag and dragged it to the storage room. After she searched for her dad. "Hi dad." she said when she found him. "Hi Mandy, Hi James. Today we are going to see your cousin in North Dakota. James is coming too." Dr. Adam said. Mandy smiled. "Anything else you can tell us about their house?" Mandy asked "Yes, They have seven horses and two sheep and lastly three dogs." Mandy smiled, "That's all I need to know! Let's go!" So the Hopes and James piled in the Land Rover for North Dakota.
