About My Adopted Dog

I don't know how to describe this little bundle of joy, but he is one celebrity in our house today. He is witty, attentive and naughty. He is a very bright dog. He easily gets the tricks I teach him. He has also passed the marshmallow test. He likes us to pay attention to him. And he makes us smile when we need to. He likes to chew on our sofa and my slippers which by the way is now laid to rest on the garbage can because of Morty.

My Dog's Adoption Story

One morning, my mom went out of our house to get something at the shop, and then she realized that there was a little puppy at one of the corners of our garage. He seemed sick. He had lost almost all of his hair at his tail and body. We were too scared to touch him since we didn't know if he would bite or not. The whole morning passed with no sign of a lost dog. And then the afternoon came, we finally gave him something to eat. We were thinking that if we don't give any food, he would just go away. But no, we gave up and gave him food. We bathed him although there are still parts of his body hair that are not okay. And now Morty is a good boy =)
