Saved by Dog
Praise Be to Dog. Woof.
Praise Be to Dog. Woof.
Somewhere in the story every one of these Dogs tells, there is a day a door opened. A shelter kennel, a foster crate, a roadside, a rescue van. You were told you were the one doing the saving. The Dog on the other side of that door has been gently disagreeing ever since.
Saved by Dog puts half a face where your whole heart already is. One eye, one ear, half a muzzle, and the steady gaze of a Dog who knows exactly what happened. Three plain words stacked beside it, because the ones who know do not need more than three.
You recognize your own Dog in half a face across a room. That is the whole idea. The papers say one thing. The Dog says another. The Dog is right.
Praise Be to Dog. Woof.
