Vet’s Observations
Dr. Stevens continued to carefully document Rufus’s reactions, watching the smallest movements—from the twitch of his ears to the way his gaze constantly returned to Karen. Although Rufus offered the vet a few cautious glances, he seemed far more focused on staying close to Karen. Gently rubbing his head, the vet murmured that Rufus was unlike most dogs she had seen. As she wrote, everyone hoped her trained eye was picking up on subtle clues that had escaped them until now.

Waiting for Clarity
Throughout the visit, Karen clung to a quiet sense of hope, convinced that Dr. Stevens might finally uncover what they had been missing. As the veterinarian continued writing, Karen tapped her foot nervously, her mind racing through possibilities. She wondered if Rufus had a specific preference or sensitivity they hadn’t yet identified. The air in the room felt heavy with anticipation. One thing was certain—Rufus’s behavior wasn’t random, and Karen desperately hoped that today would finally bring clarity.
