Every night while the Dog owner sleeps, what the dog does is mystifying!

in #dog7 years ago (edited)

A family decided to adopt a dog. He immediately became an integral part of the family and loved to play with the children. The dog was very intelligent and was a fast learner, so the family taught him many tricks.He did everything to make a family happy with him. His mere presence brought them joy. But after a couple of weeks, the dog's behavior became strange. Every night, as the family would sleep, he sat still just outside the master bedroom door and stared with his big brown eyes as they slept. He, however, never slept. Instead, he sat in exactly that same spot, the first to greet his owners when they were up each and every morning. The family had no explanation for their dog's strange behavior and began to worry about their four-legged darling. They began to wonder if he was sick and took him to a vet for examination. But the vet could not provide a proper diagnosis. The family's four-legged friend appeared to be in perfect health. In a final, desperate attempt, the family turned to the shelter from which they had adopted him. They questioned the staff there at length - perhaps might they be able to explain their dog's mysterious nocturnal behavior. What they found out about their beloved friend shattered their hearts in to a thousand pieces. It turned out the dog's former owner had quietly awoken at night one day and brought her dog to the shelter. All the while, the dog slept deeply. He was thus never able to say goodbye to his owner, his old home, his old life. When he awoke, he found himself in a new and unfamiliar surroundings. The feeling of horror he must have experienced... I would not wish upon my worst enemy. When the family was told about the dog's heartbreaking past, they could not hold back their tears. They wanted desperately to give their beloved pet his confidence back. They put their dog in a basket, right by their bed. This way, they could show their dog that they wanted him to be close to them, that he was an important part of their family. That they would never leave him. It took the dog weeks before he could begin to feel safe and secure in his new home. Finally, one night, the dog closed his eyes and fell asleep. And he has slept peacefully ever since, next to his loving family whom gave him the security he deserves. A dog's confidence is not something to play with! Therefore, you must always seriously ask yourself whether you can take care of a dog - before you risk breaking its heart.
