So, I went to the animal shelter today just to 'look around.' You know, the classic lie we tell ourselves before making life-altering decisions. I was fully prepared to resist the puppy eyes and wagging tails. Spoiler: I failed. There was this scruffy mutt in the corner, looking like he’d seen some things. He didn’t bark or jump—just stared at me with those big, hopeful eyes. Next thing I know, I’m sitting on the floor, and he’s got his head in my lap like we’ve known each other for years. Long story short, I’m now the proud human of a rescue dog who already owns my heart (and probably my couch). If you’re on the fence about adopting, just know: sometimes you don’t pick the pet—the pet picks you. And honestly? Best decision ever. #PetAdoption #RescueDog #ShelterPets #Pets
