At the local animal shelter, prospective pet owner Drew Harrisberg found that the dog he wanted was already adopted. Disheartened, he browsed through the other canine candidates- until a strange noise caught his attention.

He heard a peculiar squeal and turned around to see it coming from a Pit Bull mix named Dennis. Drew wasn’t sure why, but Dennis seemed ecstatic to see him.

He instantly fell in love with the dog, and he was powerless to stop himself. He had to have this squealing, talkative dog. Dennis was already booked into adoption by someone else as fate would have it. So Drew came up with another plan: foster Drew for the two weeks prior to his adoption going through.

Despite the fact that the shelter warned Drew that he would become attached to Dennis, he still decided to foster him. The shelter was correct; Dennis turned out to be a chatterbox, and Drew became instantly devoted to him. So much so that when it was time for Drew to return, he didn’t have the heart to do so.
