It was 10: 00 on a Saturday night. The door to the animal hospital flew open. Cyrus took a little black dog into the building.

“ Save him, please!” cried Cyrus. “He ran out into the street and a car hit him.” There was a lot of blood on his body. Dr. Williams came from behind the desk. She read the dog’s name card—Lobo.

When Dr. Williams took a closer look at Lobo, her face clouded over. Lobo’s front leg was badly hurt. She was afraid that there were other wounds (伤口) she couldn’t see. The nurses in the room all kept quiet. Everyone knew that Lobo might be hopeless. And even though he was saved, it would probably be hard for him to stand up again.

“ Here, let me take Lobo to the X—ray room,” Dr. Williams said.“I will take an X—ray of him and see what I can do.” The little dog was still whining when he was taken into the X—ray room. The X—ray showed that Lobo’s leg broke in three places. He was also bleeding (血) inside.

Dr. Williams didn’t want to give up the poor little dog. She knew she must try to stop the bleeding quickly. She started to work. The operation (手术) took nearly two hours. To everyone’s surprise, it was a success. “Let’s see how well he can walk again in a few weeks,”   said Dr. Williams.
