I took a job as a receptionist for a veterinarian (兽医) almost five decades ago. As an enthusiastic animal lover, I couldn’t bear to see any creature in pain.At the end of my first week, we are closing the office for the day 1 a young man ran up to us holding a severely injured Doberman puppy in his arms and 2 us to save his life.
The doctor and I ran back into the 3 room. The vet worked 4 for what seemed like hours, stitching(缝合)him back together again. That was the easy 5 . The puppy had broken multiple 6 , including his spine (脊柱). Even if he survived the next few days, we were quite sure he would never 7 again.
That day forever changed my life. The veterinarian guided me, and I became his assistant in all things 8 . One of my first jobs was to give that Doberman puppy daily physical care. I remember 9 his tiny legs to try to keep his muscles from becoming 10 . Weeks later, to my relief, he could use his legs again.
Fast-forward about a year. I walked into the clinic's waiting room and called the name of the next client. Suddenly, a huge Doberman who had been standing 11 with his owner on the opposite side of the room 12 loose and rushed toward me. I found myself pinned 13 the wall with this magnificent dog standing on his legs, his front paws on my shoulders, 14 my face with joyful and abundant kisses!
I still tear up in amazement at the display of love and 15 the dog had for me that day all those years ago.
