[ ], an amazing story happened to me. I have been working as a veterinarian for more than twelve years. The owners come to me with different animals, from a Great Dane to a guinea pig. I am in a hurry to help everyone. I help babies to be born, give injections, vaccinations, and treat various diseases.
Once a small dachshund was brought to me. Probably, the baby was lost, because she was brought to me by a person who accidentally found her near garbage cans. The dachshund was covered in bruises and bruises. [ ], the yard dogs did not recognize her as their own and gnawed at the poor thing's ear. [ ], the dachshund was friendly and asked to hold her. She was very hungry and tired. I washed the wounds and smeared them with ointment, and made bandages.
I didn't know where to put the dachshund, but I thought that while I would treat her, she would stay in the clinic. She drank some milk and fell asleep. In the evening, I was going home and my [ ] from the fact that she would spend the night here all alone. I wrapped her in a blanket and took her home.
At home, the dachshund behaved [ ], the children liked her very much. I decided that I would not carry her back to the clinic and treated her at home.
[ ], we became friends. She brought me home slippers and ran merrily on the grass after the ball.
Several months have passed. Walking with the Maiden, so I called the dachshund, I saw an ad for the sale of a dog. The photo was of my Maiden. I felt very sorry for the owners, who miss her and at the same time I am sorry to part with her. I called the number and it turned out that the owner of the dachshund is a small boy, [ ] my youngest son. I brought them a dachshund. I have never seen such [ ] on the boy's face. The dachshund threw herself on his neck and wagged its tail.
I often think about the little girl who ran away from her owners and got into trouble. Let all the dogs be safe!
