0:00.0	Hey everyone and welcome back to short stories for kids, the magical podcast of Story Adventures.
0:13.0	And now it's time for today's story request. Hi Lucy. My name is Sophia and I am nine years old. I live in Dubai with my parents,
0:24.2	my brother, and my rescue dog. And I love listening to your stories every night before I go to
0:30.2	sleep. I would love to hear a story about a girl called Sophia and a dog called Lloyd,
0:36.0	who go on an adventure to find the perfect tennis ball.
1:03.7	Sophia and her dog Lloyd were playing in their backyard on a lovely sunny day. Lloyd was very special. He was a rescue dog that came from a kennel for dogs that didn't have a home. Sometimes,
1:10.2	sometimes, life isn't very fair when you're a dog.
1:14.8	But when he moved him with Sophia and her parents, all his worries were whisked away.
1:20.5	He was always fed, always bathed, and his life was filled with happiness.
1:27.0	Most of his happiness came from all the playing he did

1:53.0	them and have fun with. The only problem was that the ball was becoming extremely tatty.
1:59.9	Every time Lloyd would grab it, he would slobber and dribble all over the ball was becoming extremely tattie. Every time Lloyd would grab it, he would slobber and dribble all over the
2:04.9	ball, and eventually its yellow fuzz became dull and matted. But Lloyd didn't want to give up the
2:11.8	ball. The more he played with it, the more the ball became worn. And eventually eventually the fuzz wore off, and the ball became brown
2:21.1	and bald. But Lloyd still didn't want to give the ball up. And today, finally, after Sophia did a
2:28.6	great big throw, and Lloyd took a huge flying leap to catch the ball.
2:45.3	He clamped it between his teeth, and the ball led out a big, windy, as all the air burst from it.
2:52.8	Oh, no, Sophia exclaimed, as Lloyd dropped the rather lame and limp ball from his mouth.
3:00.0	Lloyd looked up at Sophia with big, sad eyes. His favorite toy was finally gone.
