COMET

My name is Comet and I am a mixed breed dog.

I was rescued from the front line. It was very loud around and one day a rocket fell very close to me. I remember how everything was shaking, and then there was silence, which made it even scarier.

Since then, I have learned to live in the shadows, trying not to attract attention to myself. I am very timid and cautious. Sometimes I want to approach people, but something inside stops me. I am afraid that they might offend me, as it happened before.

I am indifferent to other dogs. They are here - and that's good, but I don't need their company. The main thing is to just feel safe. People... I don't know how to treat them. Sometimes they seem kind, sometimes too scary. But I heard that there are those who can give care and teach not to be afraid.

I really need someone who will show me patience and teach me to be braver. I need a little time to believe that this world may not be so scary. I'm waiting for someone who will show me what real care and love are.
