He nodded. “I hope it was okay for me to come. It was important to me to see for myself that she was okay.” Smiling, he caressed the dog’s face. “She’s better than okay. Thank you, Doctor.”

After a dreadful start in life, Peaches had gotten lucky.

“Have you decided what you want to do now that you
have your freedom?”
Caleb shrugged. “I don’t know yet. I just got out of
prison yesterday.”
