Oh Miles...
A yr ago you came to W.A.R.M, terrified, broken, and trusted no one. You were so unsure of this new environment, you had to keep your body on my car because that was your safe space in the moment. You'd allow us in your kennel, but wanted nothing to do with us. With baby steps, you'd finally take food and treats out of our hands, sniff us a little closer when we weren't looking and let us get a few, literally 2 in months, successful leash attempts to take you for a walk. You knew we were trying and we could see you were trying too, but your walls weren't ready to come down and we knew it was going to be a long road for you to do so. All we wanted was to give you that big bear hug you needed and tell you you're ok now.
2.5 months later, with the help of your 4 legged friends, you finally let a few bricks from you wall crumble and your life changed from there. Every treat, pet, walk, "good boy" and brushing session helped you gain your confidence back and trust in us. Since then you've discovered your guardian roll and you take your job very seriously. You still have a lot to be comfortable with, but we are so proud of how much you've grown in a year. You're now a typical GP, stubborn AF, goofy, love all your animals, serious when it comes to your job, and did I say stubborn AF! The best part, we can give you that big bear hug you deserve! We love you Miles, happy gotcha day! 💛
Huge thanks to Jo who made this video! I present to you, the many faces of Miles from Day 1 to Day 365.
