Who would have thought things would turn out so good. My life before AGA was terrible and I was so scared. I am 8 years old and I remember being lost and having no one to help me until a nice lady took me to a doctor. They called me “HOPE” because they knew I needed a lot of that to get well again. I had some really bad tumors that they took off and they told AGA about me and before I knew it, I was getting more attention than I’d had in a long time. One day my foster took me to adoption time to meet people who needed dogs. I smiled my best smile and rolled over for belly rubs and my family came right over and said, “Hope, we choose you!’ And I said, “Well, I choose YOU right back!” That’s all it took for me to get a mom and dad and a little dog sister. Mom stays home and looks after us but when dad gets home we are a foursome that was meant to be together. The word “hope” is pretty special because look how well it worked for me ! Love you and thanks to everyone for my life. -Hope
