I RESCUED A HUMAN

I rescued a human today.
Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering
apprehensively into the kennels.
I felt her need instantly and knew
I had to help her.
I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't
be afraid.

As she stopped at my kennel I blocked her view
from a little accident I had in the back of my cage.
I didn't want
her to know that I hadn't been walked today. Sometimes
the shelter keepers
get too busy and I didn't want her to think poorly of
them.

As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't
feel sad about my past.
I only have the future to look forward to and want to make
a difference in
someone's life.

She got down on her knees and made little kissy sounds at
me.
I shoved my shoulder and side of my head
up against the bars to comfort her.
Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for
companionship.

A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure
her that all would
be well.
Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that
I instantly
jumped into her arms.

I would promise to keep her safe. I
would promise to always be by her side.
I would promise to do everything I could to see that
radiant smile and
sparkle in her
eyes.

I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor.
So many more are out there who haven't walked the
corridors.
So many more to be saved.
At least I could save one.

I rescued a human today.
