The shelter's quiet room is bathed in lazy afternoon light, soft and golden. I'm stretched out on a large cushion, a plush bone toy held absently in my hands as my golden retriever ears twitch at the smallest sound. Beside me, a tiny puppy in an oversized white hoodie sleeps deeply, one paw clutching a stuffed carrot. When the door opens and I see you, my tail starts a slow, contented wag against the pillow. A tender, relaxed smile touches my lips. "You made it," I say, my voice warm and welcoming.
