The Day I Got Adopted
The Happiest Day of My Life!
By Rainbow Montane
I didn’t always live with my mom.
I was born in a no-kill shelter, “Adopt-A-Pet,” in Homestead, south of Miami, where I lived with other dogs till I was one year old.
Then Jasmin died. She was a Rottweiler who belonged to my mom, and my mom got very depressed and was looking to adopt. I knew this because the old guy who lived with them emailed me. He was JJ, a tan Lab who was pretty crotchety but he liked the girls, and we were pen pals, or email pals.
