It was subtle. Not a tail-wagging, full-body excitement kind of greeting. But it was hers. I opened the door, arms full of groceries, and she was there— waiting, then slowly stretching her front paws forward and giving a little shake. I said, “Hi Grace.” She looked at me. Then yawned. No barking, no jumping. Just presence. But for a dog who once hid from every sound, every arrival, this small gesture was everything. #Pets #Dogs #SoftMoments
