Lucy: Her graceful eyes wander to what might be the alpha. She hesitates before her approach. She feels a tad insecure.
The life of a stray
"I've known of dogs who dined on fine foods and led pampered lives, sleeping on soft beds and being served hamburger and chicken and even steak. I've known of dogs who looked longingly at warm homes, who were not invited inside, who stayed in a garage or a shed or under a wheelbarrow for a few days, then moved on. I've known of dogs who were treated cruelly by human hands and dogs who were treated with the gentlest touch, dogs who starved and dogs who grew fat from too many treats. I know all these dogs, and I've been all these dogs."
-Ann M. Martin, from the book A Dog's Life
