When I was about 11 or 12, my cousins dog had puppies. At the time, my cousin and the dog lived with my grandparents. Anyway, there was a runt of the litter. I think they were all half Chow, half beagle-mutt-type dog. The runt was so tiny, and couldn't feed with the other pups around and they were FAT! At the time, my grandpa had cancer. It was maybe 6 months before he passed away, so he was weak from all the chemo and drugs and everything. I remember how he used to laugh at how ugly that little runt was... He started taking care of it, feeding it out of a bottle in his lap, the whole 9 yards. It kept him and the pup happy

He ended up giving the dog away to my cousin's babysitter, but now it's a big old fat mutt that don't take no $#!t from nobody

I remember how he used to laugh at how ugly that little runt was...
