A Generous Gift
The man seemed beyond grateful and had given the couple a gift for looking after Connie for two weeks. He reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out an envelope.
“I drew this money from the bank after our phone call. Please take it, and thank you again for looking after my Connie.” But when Jenna opened the envelope, she couldn’t believe it. One thousand dollars was in the envelope. The man smiled and told her his dog was worth all the money in the world. Now the couple was left speechless as the man left the house, reunited with his special companion.
