This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at U Iowa chapter.
Hi! My name is Ashes and I am eight years old. I was born in Texas, but have lived in Iowa with my Mom for a while now. I’m a little young for college. but I help my Mom in completing her Studio Arts degree. I’m not allowed to go to class, so I help her complete her homework. I can be seen walking around downtown as I love walks and attention. If you try to pass by me without stopping to play I get very sad. I love playing and attention and food. I just got a nice new vest so I can fly home with Mom without being in a kennel. Kennels aren’t fun there isn’t enough space for my fluff.
