A scruffy little dog bounded along the streets. A collar around her neck dangling there. She had a ribbon tied around. She had just been dumped off a few blocks away by her owner. Shasta saw a beautiful dog standing amongst other dogs. She wasn't sure if she should be surprised so she walked over. She smiled widely before trotting along. Shasta was a world class agility dog. Shasta was small but she was speedy.
"Hey." she said sitting down near them.

Faith nodded her head. She the realized how many dogs were on the streets. She never new so many were homeless. There were three dogs around her. Four including herself.
Faith then nodded her head at the dog in greetings and said "Hello, Im faith, and you are?" she streached out the last two words for she new not the name of the dog she spoke to

Shasta smiled at the dog as she surveyed everyone else. They seemed nice enough. No one she would have to run from. It was obvious that the golden retriever had been pampered but so had Shasta in her day so she looked passed that. She turned her attention back to the dog.
"I am Shasta. Nice to mee you, Faith." she said with a smile scratching at her collar angrily trying to get it off. Her owners disowned her. Why should she wear their token?

Shasta nodded. Her owner didn't want her. Her owner had never really loved her that way. They had never held her like a normal owner should hold their pets. No, they would hit her, kick, and throw her if she didn't perform well. They would never let her have her own puppies either. She would never be anything that they wanted. She was a mutt.
"My owners hate me. They will never come back. Never." she said tugging on her collar.

Faith was shocked. Why? How could someone be so cruel? her owner was nice and kind to Faith. She then watched in awe as the female tried to get the collar off of her neck.

Shasta looked up at her. She wasn't sure what she was going to do. Should she help the other dog get her collar off? Maybe the dog didn't want it off? You never knew. Shasta settled with it on for now but she would get it off later. She stood up and came to the other dog's shoulder. She was rather short.
"What about you?" she asked with a smile.

"What ta mean?" she said with little question marks filling up her eyes. She looked around to the other dogs. They didnt say a word, she then turned back to the dog and said "What was your name again? I think I must have missed it"

Shasta looked up. She wasn't sure what she had meant. Maybe she had meant why wasn't she fighting the collar off? Why wasn't she crying over the lose of her family? Shasta shook the thoughts out of her mind as she tried to center herself. She knew that she had. She knew that she would be a strong dog in the end. Her pain was going to end but that is ok. It wasn't going to end in death but maybe friendship.
"I mean why aren't you fighting the collar? I am Shasta." she said once more.

Shasta rolled her eyes. What a pampered pooch! She was nice and everything but did she really think her owner was gonna really look for her. It just wasn't gonna happen and Shasta knew it. The faster that Faith realized it, the faster she will grow to love the streets.
"How do you know?" she asked.

"Didnt you hear me? I was stollen. Im a famous dog. Im not a disowned pet. Trust me. Im sure just any minute now. Someone will find me. They will know who I am. Trust me" Why didnt this dog just understand? Faith was a famous dog. Everyone new her. She would be on the new today. There would be flyers every where looking for her. she would be found and would go home.

Shasta laughed a little. Maybe she wouldn't? Maybe her owners got those people to steal her so they wouldn't have to take the wrap for dumping their dog off? Shasta smiled a little before jumped up and shook her self. She wasn't sure how to explain this to the dog.
"Maybe they aren't looking. That is all I am saying." she said with a harsh smile.

Faith squitted her eyes. If she didnt know better she would belive that this was the dog known as Star that Faith had "run" into at the compettion. Faith let out a snicker than said "She will come. And she will find me"

Shasta nodded. She wasn't sure about anything anymore but she was sure that the owner of this dog would not return. She sat down and licked her paws happily. She wasn't about to break this dog's spirit. She admired the dog. She really wanted her family as Shasta had wanted a real family.
"I admire you a lot. I wish my family would come after me." said Shasta.
