Chapter 7: It's Pumkin!

Since Matt's dog is introduced in chapter 7, I think it's necassery to create a single post only for Pumkin. Because Pumkin is not just a dog, he changed - so I think - Matt's life forever. She gave him optimism when he needed it, she knew when Matt was feeling bad and Matt could talk to her about everything. It's kinda crazy to talk with a dog about your problems, but it really helps! You calm down, maybe see things with other eyes and get some optimism after a conversation with your dog. Thus Matt could develop his extroverted characteristic easier (eg. his humor). Matt also learned much about responsebility as he had to care about his dog every day. This was a good foundation to be a well student. So that in general all the said factors initiated by Pumpkin confirm my thought that Pumpkin changed Matt's life forever.
