I thought of a dog now! FINALLY!
This girl I used to play outside with all the time had a German shepherd. Boy was she amazing.

Penny is her name. She was a year old when she was sold to a man who was a drug addict and a true hick! He gave her table scraps when he felt like it and she was left in a small crate in the yard everyday of her life. The man decided to sell her for 200 dollars. She certainly wasn't worth that much. She had ticks,fleas,and heart worms. Her ribs where visible. She was basically the most pathetic dog. Her dad(who might I add is a Pastor) saw a sign thatr said 200 dollar dog. So he went to see the dog. At first he wasn't even expecting this. When he drove up to the house he already knew there was something wrong. He bought her anyway. She was later trained as a therapy dog. She is afraid of sticks and long solid objects. We think she was hit with sticks,bats,ect. She does have some injuries. But all in all, she isn't afriad of humans. The people at nursing homes and hospitals always look forward to her visits. She is the happiest dog alive. You would never have thought she was abused. At home, she plays fetch with balls,swims,and just has a good old time despite anything. She has taught me that animals have the power to forgive no matter what. And they WILL use that
