“Ah, this little lady.” Tony said as he leaned against the wall as the little dog sniffed and licked at Katelynn’s fingers excitedly. “She’s been here a few days now.” he wasn’t about to tell them that if she wasn’t picked up soon she would meet the same fate as far too many animals did.
“Aw.” Jack said quietly as he reached down, and pet the puppy’s back. “She is precious…”
“So what kind of place do you live in?” Tony asked.
“Same apartment as me, Uncle Tony.”
“Oh well then, in good walking distance of the park, near here for the vet, and big enough for how big she’s going to get…” Tony mused.
“I was going to try to get an older dog, as you said..but I think I’m in love with her..” she said softly, reaching between the bars and petting her. “Bulldogs are really calm dogs. Excellent for companionship…Hi cutie..hi..!”
“What matters most to us is that they go to a loving home more than anything. And I know Jack wouldn’t let anyone who doesn’t have one take a dog home from here.” Tony said. “So do you want to try her out, do you? We do offer you to take the dogs home for a few days, to see how they settle. If they’re not for you, we do understand.”
