Winston

I sighed and rolled my shoulders as I drove home. Today had been exhausting- it was the most socializing I'd had to do in a while.

I hated it.

My lights caught on a flash of gold on the road and I slowed my car down. A dirty golden Labrador with a rope around its throat was trotting beside my car curiously. I parked on the side of the road and opened my door, swinging my legs out and whistling for the dog. The poor thing had clearly been abandoned and I could tell it was hungry. It looked at me curiously before padding a few feet away and sitting down. He gave me a pensive look and I sighed before hauling myself out of my car and walking around to the back.

I sat on the back edge of the trunk after opening it and whistled again. It inched toward me a bit more and whines, wanting to come toward me but still being cautious. I reached into the back of my car where I kept dog treats and held one out, smiling softly when it eagerly approached me and lapped up the treat.

After taking the poor thing home and feeding it, washing it, and settling it in a carrier a set it out on the porch.

"Winston, this is everybody... Everybody, this is Winston."

I watched with a soft smile as my other seven dogs crept toward the cage and sniffed about it.

I love my dogs more than I love myself.

And I'm okay with that.
