It was a sunny summer day in the South and Jimmy was walking home from the park. As Jimmy turned the corner to his house he felt a nudge at his calf. He jumped, startled by the nudge, and looked down to see a cute, hungry, and dirty puppy. He couldn't believe it. He had always wanted a puppy of his own and this puppy appeared to be a stray. Jimmy scooped up the puppy and continued on his way home. 

When he arrived home, he hid the puppy under his jacket and snuck upstairs to the bathroom to get him cleaned up. He didn't want his mom to see the puppy, especially dirty and smelly. The puppy splashed around in the bath and shook water all over the whole room, soaking Jimmy in the process. 

"I'll name you Splashers!" exclaimed Jimmy. 

Soon after, Jimmy's mom heard the commotion and came to investigate, finding a damp Jimmy and a sopping wet Splashers.

"Jimmy! What is happening here?" said his mom. 

"I found him. Can we keep him? Please, please!" begged Jimmy. His mom reluctantly agreed because she could see how happy the dog made her son. 

Jimmy and Splashers quickly became inseparable, the very best of friends.
