Paw Prints in the Sand

Love is a strong word signifying different things to different people. It is the relationship between man and woman, parent and child, sibling or friend. To many, it is the soulful bond between dog and its human. When Chelsea and Anthony adopted a male and a female retriever-Sugar and Spice-the shelter attendant assured them that the female had been spayed, but the male needed to get neutered. When Sugar went for a checkup, they discovered otherwise; Sugar was pregnant. So, when Sugar gave birth, finding the perfect owner for each puppy was arduous, but finding an owner for the last pup was downright heart wrenching. This pup had just recovered from health issues and had been nursed back to health by Chelsea for six months-just enough time for Chelsea and her to form a powerful bond. Alas, it was time to find the pup her forever home, but Chelsea rejected many of the pursuers. None were good enough.On that warm summer afternoon, the seemingly perfect couple fit the bill. With tears in her eyes, Chelsea handed them the pup she secretly named Foxy, the one she loved as if it were her own daughter. Two years later, she received a phone call from the veterinarian. A loose dog was found and the microchip led them to Chelsea. Only then did she discover that Foxy hadn't been given a good home after all. They had unknowingly handed her to the owners of a puppy mill. As if a knife had been driven through her heart, Chelsea had a choice to make. One that would make things right, as they should've been from the beginning. One that would change their lives forever.A moving love story that demonstrates the unbreakable bond and sustainable love between dogs and humans. A fictional novella
