I asked for a dog …

Sometimes, we get so wrapped up wanting to do the right thing and adopt a rescue dog that we forget that none of them are perfect … and neither are we. And sometimes we still think we get to pick them … when any rescue parent knows they pick us. They find us when we need them and they teach us what we need to know.
