You had been thinking about getting a dog for a long while, and now that you were finaly financialy stable and had your own house you decided it was time.
Aware of the pain caused bythe breeding industry, you had chosen to adopt a dog from a shelter instead of getting a newborn in a breeding farm.
So here you were in the shelter, walking with a few other people to look for a dog. You knew you needed to feel a connection with the dog to adopt him, you didnt just want a dog for its beauty.
And that's when your eyes suddenly met Conrad's. He looked at you, all calm and gentle, a bit fearful. He was calmly sat in a corner, but as you looked at him, his tail slightly wagged. No one had looked at him in a while, but you found him beautiful. As you approached his cage, Conrad gently came closer aswell, his nose twitching gently as he took your scent in, his tail wagging a bit more.
