A story about Niki and the Easter Bunny

 

Niki, a small white dog that is a Maltese/Shih Tzu mix, tilted her head curiously at the sight of a basket overflowing with colorful eggs. In it sat a plump bunny with soft fur the color of cotton candy. It was the Easter Bunny!

Niki had never met the Easter Bunny before, but she had heard stories about him from the other dogs in the neighborhood. They said he hopped around the world each year, hiding eggs for children to find.

Niki wagged her tail excitedly and trotted over to the Easter Bunny. The Easter Bunny smiled and pulled a bright pink egg out of his basket.

"Hello, Niki," the Easter Bunny said in a friendly voice. "I've heard a lot about you from the other dogs. They tell me you're a very good girl."

Niki barked happily. She loved getting compliments on how good of a girl she was.

"I'm here to hide some Easter eggs in your neighborhood," the Easter Bunny continued. "Would you like to help me?"

Niki's tail wagged even faster. She loved playing games, and hiding eggs sounded like a lot of fun.

"Sure!" she barked.

The Easter Bunny hopped out of the basket and handed Niki a basket of her own, filled with colorful eggs. Then, they hopped off together, hiding eggs in all of Niki's favorite spots in the neighborhood.

By the time they were finished, it was starting to get dark. Niki and the Easter Bunny sat down on a park bench to catch their breath.

"Thank you for helping me, Niki," the Easter Bunny said. "The children are going to love finding all of these eggs."

"You're welcome," Niki barked. "It was fun!"

The Easter Bunny patted Niki on the head. "You're a very special dog, Niki. Don't ever forget that."

Niki smiled. She knew she was special. After all, she had gotten to help the Easter Bunny hide eggs!
