1. Getting my first dog‚ Candy: One life altering experience for me was when I got my first dog‚ Candy. Dogs were and still are one of my favorite things ever. When I first got her‚ she was small‚ soft and golden- everything I ever wanted. She was always jumping around and barking and being the curious puppy she was.
