We Found Her At The Laundrymat
by Teri Porto
However, that all changed when early one morning I stopped at a local laundrymat and in the door way was this beautiful golden cocker spaniel. Scared out of her mind and wondering where her owner was, she literally leaped into my arms. My friend and I asked the lady there if the dog was hers and she said no. Before you could say lost but found, I took her home to convince my husband, brother and mother what we needed was just one more dog. What could they say, one look at her and she was ours. The first thing my husband did was present her with her own bed. However, the experience of being abandoned left a deep impression on her. She moved herself onto her bed and with her back toward us, she spend a week wondering what did she do to be left on her own. The sad face tore at our hearts. But with extra loving from our family and Tini to lead the way, Teddy Bear came to be ours. She has now been a member of our family for over two years and a loving companion to our other dog Tini. They spent the past two years as rivals and friends until last year when Teddy Bear suffered the loss of her closest friend. Teddy Bear now rules our home. Teddy Bear, like any of our dogs, will have a permanent home with us as long as she lives. No more will she face the disappointment of being left on her own.
