It's like finally they get it-I won't be hit, I'll be safe,I won't be used for breeding over & over again,I'll always be clean,safe & have good food and water.
People tell us that the pups are lucky to have us- no, WE'RE the lucky ones, we're there when they decide to trust again and that light goes "on"  !
Thank you for trying to help this little girl!!  |
You are so right. Watching Smokey go from a malnourished, scared little sweet baby to this brave dog that actually prances now when he walks has been the most rewarding experience. I watched Chip grow from the time he was 7 weeks old... I watched him change from this little baby to an adult dog, but I missed all that with Smokey. What I did get to see is him grow emotionally. It's been very rewarding watching that "light" go off and seeing his head held high.
