Favorite Place = Home Muskogee, OK

My favorite place is definitely home in Muskogee, Oklahoma. I grew up there and it shaped me into who I am today. There are countless memories within my house and soon my family will be leaving it.

It is time now to look back on the good memories though. Many of the great memories are due to family gatherings, OU football, and most importantly our dogs. If nothing else is remembered from this post, understand that the Lutons are dog people. I have a favorite, and thankfully he is still around today.

Dodger is  a 6'1" 125 pound half Labrador half Husky. He has really pretty eyes and does not know his own strength. We found Dodger on the side of the road in a box at Honor Heights Park in Muskogee. The guy next to the box said the pups were going to the pound where they would surely be put down. So, we picked one out, Dodger. Dodger has been a wonderful pet over the last couple of years and always looks after me. He has a great personality, and I hope he has many years left in him. I hope all people get a chance to have a pet this great.

  1. Oh, Ben, look at that wonderful dog — what a great picture! It looks like he is telling you something VERY important, ha ha. Maybe Dodger can make an appearance in your stories for this class... and of course there are great dog stories from around the world. Here's a search of our class UnTextbook for dog: lots of dog stories in there! :-)
