You look at the description of Milo hanging on his kennel. It says......
Rescued from a abusive home. Abused severly by his owner. He attacked his abuser, and that is why he has been at the shelter so long,but has turned into a whole different dog. He is a loving caring comapssinate animal that loves children and other animals. He is looking for a home that will raise his confidence and let him have a forever family. Your mom grabs a application for adoption of a dog on the way out. Your mom also reminds you not to get your hopes up, because you still currently live in a no pets apartment. You have to move first, before even thinking about a dog. Milo might not be there when you eventually move, she reminds you. You go [[home]].

Mom tells them we might be interested in Milo. (because I finally convinced her). The Shelter said that we were the ones looking into him. We werent moved in fully so you were focused on that instead of Milo for about two weeks. I visited him maybye once or twice, but not very much. I had basketball & cheer, so we were pretty busy. My mom got a call one day but ignored it because she didnt know the number, they left a voicemail but she said shed listen to it [[later]].
Your mom listned to the voicemail on speaker a little later. Since you had been very busy with moving & all the sports you play, you hadn't called or really paid attention to going to see Milo. The shelter called saying that he had been there way too long and they needed the room for another dog. They said they would have to humanely euthanize him at 6:00 if nobody called for him by then. You start to cry as you look at the clock and it's 5:45. It will take you at least 20 minutes to get there even if your mom speeds. Your mom tries to call the shelter, but the line is busy. You start to [[drive]].
