During summer vacations, I would volunteer at the vet’s, so I’d seen a lot of dogs. Minnie was by far the funniest-looking dog I’d ever seen. Thin curly hair barely covered her sausage-shaped body. Her big eyes always looked surprised. And her tail looked like a rat’s.
She was brought to the vet to be put to sleep because her owners didn’t want her anymore. But I thought Minnie had a sweet personality. “No one should judge her by her looks,” I thought. So instead of putting her to sleep, the vet gave her the chance to be adopted (收养) by someone else. I advertised Minnie, in the local paper: “Funny-looking dog, well behaved, needs a loving family.”
When a young man called, I warned him that Minnie was strange looking. The boy on the phone told me that his Grandfather’s 16-year-old dog had just died. They wanted Minnie no matter what it looked like. I gave Minnie a good bath. Then we waited for them to arrive.
At last, an old car drove up in front of the vet’s. Two kids ran to the door. They took Minnie to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see his reaction to Minnie.
The Grandfather carried Minnie in his arms and touched her soft hair. She licked (舔) his face. It was love at first lick.
“She’s perfect!” the old man said excitedly.
I was thankful that Minnie had found the good home that she deserved (值得).
That’s when I saw that the grandfather’s eyes were a milky white color—he was blind.
