I never thought I’d see the day when I would be loved so deeply, despite everything that happened to me. I was once a small, playful puppy with big dreams of running and jumping around, exploring the world with my paws. But that dream was shattered when I lost my two front legs in a terrible accident. The world around me seemed to stop, and everything I once knew felt out of reach. Yet, even in my darkest moments, I discovered that love could still find me.

I was abandoned by my first family, left in a cold, empty corner of the world. I couldn’t move the way I used to, and I was terrified. I didn’t know who would want me, a little dog with no front legs, unable to run or play like the others. I watched as other dogs were adopted and taken home, while I stayed behind, feeling more and more alone with each passing day.

But then, everything changed when a kind-hearted woman walked into the shelter. She was unlike the others who came to look at dogs and leave. She saw me, and instead of looking away, she walked toward me with a warm smile. She knelt down and gently stroked my fur, and I felt something I hadn’t felt in so long: hope. She didn’t see my missing legs; she saw the love in my eyes, the courage I still had in my heart, and the spirit that refused to be broken.

She took me home that very day. I was scared, unsure of what would happen next, but she promised me I would be loved, no matter what. Over time, I learned to adapt to my new life. It wasn’t easy, and sometimes I would fall, but I never gave up. She was there, always encouraging me, helping me stand tall even when I thought I couldn’t.

Even though I only have two legs now, my heart is full of love. I may not be able to run as fast as I once dreamed, but I can still move in my own way. I may not be able to play fetch like the other dogs, but I can wag my tail with excitement every time my mom walks into the room. I may not look like the dogs people usually want, but I know in my heart that I am worthy of love. And the love I receive from my family is more than enough.

My two legs may not be much, but they carry me through life every single day. They remind me that I am strong, and no matter what, I am loved. It’s not about what I’ve lost, but about what I still have – a heart that beats with love for the woman who saw me for who I am and gave me a chance. She gave me a forever home, and in return, I will love her with all of my heart for as long as I live.

I may have only two legs, but my love knows no limits.
