When was the first time you knew your dog recognized you as their person? For me, it was when I went to pick up my best friend for a night out. She had been watching a puppy for someone who never came back to claim her. Since her daughter couldn’t keep the pup, she handed her over to my friend, who also wasn’t able to keep her.
So, I arrived and asked, “Who’s this?” as the pup leapt into my arms for a hug.
My friend replied, “She doesn’t have a name yet. I’m taking her to a coworker tomorrow to see if they’re a good match.”
The puppy, meanwhile, stayed by my side.
Alright, I’m heading out,” I said, as I walked out with the pup following me, hopping right into my car. She hugged my neck the entire ride home and was fast asleep by the time we arrived.
A little later, my friend called and asked, “So, are you coming back with that puppy?”
“Nope,” I replied. And that was three years ago.
Now, my little Penny and I are inseparable. She’s my lucky charm and my soulmate
