The Lost Puppy and the Homeless Veteran
The city was alive with noise—honking horns, shouting vendors, the occasional bark of a dog—but none of it mattered to the tiny, scruffy puppy limping through the alleyways. Gizmo, as he would come to be known, was no bigger than a loaf of bread. His fur was matted with grime, his ears flopped unevenly, and his tail was nothing more than a tired curl. But his eyes—oh, his eyes—held the weight of something older than his small frame should carry.

The Little Stray Dog That Feared Humans
Since just after Thanksgiving of last year, along with three neighbors, I have been trying to get a stray dog off a dangerous street nearby. We have been trying every trap imaginable to capture him.
