We had a friend visit today. At first, Grace did her usual thing—she disappeared to the hallway, cautious and unsure. But then, slowly, she peeked out. Her ears relaxed, tail wagging in small arcs. Within a few minutes, she walked up and leaned gently against my friend’s leg. It may seem small, but for her, that trust feels huge. I couldn’t help smiling the whole time. #Pets #Dogs #RescueDog
