The story behind Maya is I have always wanted to get a Jack Russell puppy. My old horse trainer her name was Heather. She had the best Jack Russell in the world his name was Marlo. A woman name Lynda would always get Marlo when she went on trips. Heather's house pretty much was Lynda's home. Due to Heather’s untimely death Lynda got Marlo. I was the one who really wanted him. I kept on trying to get him but it never did happen. Soon after Marlo bit Lynda so bad they took him to the vet. This broke my heart. Marlo had a tumour in his brain. So then they had to put him down. But then Lynda bought a couple of Jack Russells and then started to breed them. At first my mother keept on saying "NO YOU WILL NOT GET ANOTHER DOG YOU HAVE PEBBLES(our dog) AND CHEWY(my guinea pig)." My heart was still broken. The dogs Lynda was breeding cost so much money but then she lowered it a little ,but since im only a child it still was too much money. Then a couple weeks ago she bred her dogs Cooper and Macie, my 2 most favorite dogs she had. They made 4 beautiful puppies, 2 girls and 2 boys. There was one I loved the most and it was Maya. She was all white with a small spot on her tail and a small spot on her right ear. I wanted her so bad. Then one day my mother emailed me saying we got a Jack from Lynda. So I ran down stairs or fell down the stairs because I was going so fast. I got back up and then ran into the living room. I said "did we really get her?" and then my father said "wow you are right, she does believe you." I was so upset I ran back upstairs and slammed my room door. I hated what my father did. Then my mother came up and said we bought her. I was so happy. So now we have been buying everything for the puppy. I can't wait to get her. I will pick her up on the 21st or 22nd of May 2010.
