Mischief

OH NO! How traumatic!

Victoria somehow managed to get duct tape on her neck.

We'll have to do surgery!

We're going to need help. We had better call in our older sister A2.

We finally manged to get it off.

Dad isn't going to be happy about his duct tape!

Our hero! Thanks A2!

Not Another One! YES! Another One!

Hi! This is Boy in a Zoo with your host - ME!!

People who know us might want to sit down right now, because we got another animal!

Her name is Victoria

She is a blue-eyed, brown-eyed Australian Shepherd-Blue Tick Hound Mix.

She also has a super power.

Anyone who truly loves animals in their heart

can see a heart-shaped patch of fur on her head.

Friends and family I know you think we are crazy but could you really leave this sweet baby all alone in a pet store? She was the runt and all of her brothers and sisters were beating up on her.

We had to take her!! Could YOU have turned her down?

Oh, and here is a tip to find out if you pass the test..Are you a true animal lover: The heart on her head appears upside down in the picture.

In this story 13year old Mallory is kidnapped by dwarves, 9 year old twins Jarred and Simon try to rescue her and end up getting captured themselves.
