Ugly Dog Is Returned Home

By: billnieporte | Date: June 16, 2009 | Categories: Uncategorized

The ugly dog has been returned to his home.

 

 As it turns out, he wasn’t a hairless Chiwawa, but a Chinese Crested.  Whatever the breed, there’s no denying that this was one ugly dog.  Even the owners agreed.  They heard about our search and stopped by this evening, overjoyed to have found their dog. 

 

 “It’s so ugly it’s cute!” they said.  Actually, that’s the sentiment heard from many who saw this little dog’s picture. 

 

 Our cat hated this little dog.  I can’t really say that I blame her one bit.  From her perspective, this was not really a dog, but rather a mouse on steroids.

 

 As it turns out, the dogs name was “Pike.”  Really?  “Pike!”  Okay, it’s their dog.  But I thought my wife’s name was better.  We called him “Harry!”

 

 In any event, he’s been returned home.  He was missed by his family and obviously well loved.  That’s probably what made him so cute.  Love has a way of making something special – even out of an old ugly dog.

 

 “This is love,” the scripture’s say.  “Not that we love God, but that God loved us!”

 “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us,” says another verse.

 

 Even when we are broken down and uglied by our own sin and the sins of the world, God’s love steps in and somehow makes us adorable and acceptable.

 

Best wishes to any other ugly dogs out there.
