I never wanted a dog, but now I'm so glad I have one.
About one year ago, my wife, Mary, got a little dog with a face only a mother could love. We
named her Baby.
Baby is the kind of dog that has to grow on you. So I decided that the dog would be trained. This
didn't quite go as planned. At 15 weeks old, she was nearly made to leave the Petsmart Training
School. She spent every night lying in our bed-snoring (打鼾) so loudly that I hardly got a good night's
sleep.
Then, about six months after she arrived, I felt that something in my heart was taking place, and I
was unable to stop it. My behavior (行為方式) began to change. I began to smile at people when
passing them in a street. I returned from neighbors. I started calling my kids and, to my surprise,
they started calling me. I even tried to speak to my grandchildren over the phone once. I even was
glad to listen to laughter from a 10-month-old granddaughter. The point is that I was changing.
My wife and I both agree that it is Baby who has changed my behavior.
Baby is now nearly one year old and almost fully grown. I have come to like the pet little by little,
though she is my wife's dog.
