One of mybest friends went abroad to enjoy her holidays, so the job of looking after herdog Missy has been given to me. A few months ago, Missy came to my friend' shouse. She looked terrible. She had beenabusedfor a long time.
When we firstvisited my friend and Missy, my friend had to gently pull her over on a lead(牵绳) to get her to come to us. She wanted to come but afraid to do so —the poor, beautiful thing.
Clearly Missy came to the right home. Myfriend has given birth to a baby of her own and shows the love of a mother.
This is justwhat Missy needs. Thanks to the love of my friend, she has changed into a newdog step by step. Sadly, she is still afraid of strange humans. I hate toimagine what the dog must have gone through.
Now,Missy trusts me completely, so I can touch her belly. While standing, she willjump up so gently to be closer to me, putting her paws(爪子) on my legs as she looks at me with those beautiful eyes.
Missyis really brave. She has the courage to try again, to open her hearts, and toknow that not everyone is the same kind of people as before. Keep it in mindthat tomorrow is another day.
