like a rat?s tail. She had big round eyes and always seemed surprised, but she was blind.
She was brought to the vet?s because her owner didn?t want her any more. I thought Minnie was a sweet dog, though. “No one should judge her by the way she looks,” I thought. So we took care of her. Finally, I advertised Minnie in the newspaper: “Funny-looking dog, who is quiet and has blind but beautiful eyes. Needs a loving family.”
When a young man called, I warned him that Minnie was strange looking. The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather?s sixteen-year-old dog had just died. I gave Minnie a good bath and made her hair feel soft. Then we waited for them to arrive.
At last, an old car drove up in front of the vet?s. Two kids raced to the door. They took her happily into their arms. Then they ran to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car. I hurried behind them to see what he would say about Minnie.
Inside the car, the grandfather held Minnie in his arms and touched her soft hair. She licked (舔) his face. Her tail wagged (摇摆) so quickly that it looked like it would fly off her body. It was love at first lick.
“She?s perfect!” the old man smiled.
I was thankful that Minnie had found the good home that she deserved. Then l saw that the grandfather?s eyes were a milky white color--he was blind, too. 66. From the reading we can know that the writer A. knew the boy and his grandfather very well B. was spending her holiday fight now
