I like to swim, ride my bike and play with my friends. I also play the flute and hopefully will join the Marching Band or maybe the Drill Team next year. This summer, I would like to become an entrepeneur and establish my own pet-sitting service. I also swim for the Bellevue Tidal Waves during the summer. We usually lose, but I have a lot of fun. I've also been in the Girl Scout Organization for 6 years. I will be flying up to Cadets this month. Next month, I will be travelling to Washington, DC with my class for our "Sixth Grade Trip." Look out DC!
The rate of aging in dogs varies by breed. Usually, larger dogs begin aging earlier than smaller dogs. For example, if your dog is a Saint Bernard, he could be considered old by the age of six. But medium-sized dogs don't usually show signs of aging until nine to eleven years. And small breeds like toy poodles probably won't show signs until they're at least eleven.
