The story of the bead that became a family

I am a dog.
People call me “Bead!”
Years ago, the fourth child of Superjip Bangul was born and sent here after being weaned from his mother's milk.
Dongdong, Dongdong's father, and Dongdong's grandmother... That's how we became a family.
Our mother, Bangul, gave birth to a huge number of puppies every year.
What this means is that most of the dogs I encounter in the neighborhood might be my brothers and sisters.
“Auuuul” So when I hear someone’s voice, I try to answer diligently.
Even if you don't remember, we are family.
But this guy Dongdong is really troublesome.
Even though he is five years old, he is still clumsy at running.
Plus, he's a tantrum-maker, a crybaby, and still can't control his bowels, so he sometimes makes mistakes in bed.
But there's nothing I can do.
I have to take care of it until the end.
Dongdong smells good.
Me too… I’m sleepy… .
