During summer vacations, I would work at a hospital for pets, so I'd seen a lot of dogs．Minnie was by far the funniest-looking dog I'd ever seen．Thin curly hair barely covered her sausage-shaped body．Her bugged-out（凸出） eyes always seemed surprised．And her tail looked like a rat's tail．

She was brought to the hospital because her owners didn't want her anymore．I thought Minnie had a sweet personality, though．"No one should judge her by her looks," I thought．She was quite fit and didn't need any treatment．So I advertised Minnie in the local paper: "Funny-looking dog, well behaved, needs loving family．"

When a young man called, I warned him that Minnie was strange looking．The boy on the phone told me that his grandfather's sixteen-year-old dog had just died．They wanted Minnie no matter what．I gave Minnie a good bath and fluffed up（使松散）what was left of her poor hair．Then we waited for them to arrive．

      At last, an old car pulled up in front of the vet's．Two kids raced to the door．They took Minnie into their arms and rushed her out to their grandfather, who was waiting in the car．I hurried behind them to see his reaction（反应）to Minnie．

Inside the car, the grandfather held Minnie in his arms and touched her soft hair gently．She moved her mouth over his face．Her rat tail moved from side to side ．so quickly that it looked like it might fly off her body．It was love at first lick（舔）．

       A．the dog's curly hair                             B．the dog's personality
