Hey, little fella, who might you be?
Sorry, I didn’t mean to scare you.
Come back.
Look at you, all bedraggled
And forlorn, don’t be shy.
That’s it — come here.
Oh, you’re so skinny!
It looks like you need some food
And a bath.
Here, I have a sandwich.
I’ll share it with you.
You can have the meat
And I’ll have the rest.
No, I won’t hit you.
Someone hurt you, didn’t they?
Me too.
You can hang with me
If you want.
We’ll be friends.
Oh, you’d like that, would you?
Look at that tail wag!
Can I pet you?
Here, you can share my blanket.
Do you have a name?
Probably not.
You’re a throwaway like me.
I think I’ll call you Alley
That’s where I first saw you.
I’ll take care of you, Alley
And you can take care of me.
Everybody needs someone to love.
