B

Four days after Dad’s 67th birthday, he had a heart attack. He was lucky—he survived. But something inside him had died. His enthusiasm for life was gone.

My husband and I asked Dad to live with us on our small farm, hoping the fresh air would help him adjust. Within a week after he moved in, I regretted the invitation. He criticized everything I did. I became frustrated.

One day I read an article about a nursing home. Several depressed patients’ attitudes had improved dramatically when they were given dogs. So, I drove to the animal shelter that afternoon. As soon as I got there, a pointer’s（指示犬）eyes caught my attention. They watched me calmly.

A staff member said, “He got here two weeks ago and we’ve heard nothing. His time is up tomorrow.” I turned to the man in horror. “You mean you’re going to kill him?” “Ma’am,” he said gently. “We don’t have room for every unclaimed dog.” The pointer’s calm brown eyes awaited my decision. “I’ll take him,” I said.

Glancing at the dog, Dad wrinkled his face and turned back towards the house. Then, suddenly, the pointer pulled free from my grasp. He sat down in front of Dad. Dad’s anger melted, and soon he was hugging the animal.

It was the beginning of a warm friendship. Dad named the pointer Cheyenne. Together they spent long hours walking down dusty lanes and relaxing on the banks of streams.

Dad’s bitterness faded, and he and Cheyenne went on to make many friends. Then, late one night two years later, I felt Cheyenne’s cold nose searching through my bed covers. He had never come into our bedroom before at night. I ran into my father’s room and found that he had passed away.

Two days later, my shock and grief deepened when I discovered Cheyenne lying dead beside Dad’s bed. As I buried him near their favorite stream, I silently thanked the dog for restoring Dad’s peace of mind.
