Once upon a time, there was a loyal dog named Max. Max was a brown and white terrier with floppy ears and big brown eyes. He had a rough start in life as he was abandoned by his previous owner on one side of the road. Max was left all alone and scared, not knowing what to do or where to go.

One day, an old woman named Mrs. Thompson was passing by and saw the poor dog whimpering on the side of the road. Mrs. Thompson had a kind heart, and she couldn’t bear to see the dog in such distress. She approached him slowly and carefully, and after a few minutes, Max had calmed down enough to let Mrs. Thompson approach him.

Mrs. Thompson saw that Max was thin and had no collar, which meant that he didn’t have a home. She decided to take him home with her and care for him until she could find a permanent home for him.

Mrs. Thompson nursed Max back to health, feeding him well and giving him a warm place to sleep. Max was very grateful to Mrs. Thompson and quickly became attached to her. He would follow her around the house, wagging his tail and licking her hand whenever he could.

As time passed, Max got stronger and healthier, and Mrs. Thompson knew that it was time to find him a permanent home. She contacted a local animal shelter, and after a few weeks, Max was adopted by a loving family. However, Max never forgot about the old woman who saved his life.

One day, many years later, Max found himself standing at the bus stop, waiting for the old woman who had saved his life. Mrs. Thompson had moved to a different city, and Max had lost touch with her, but he never forgot about her kindness. He had heard that she was now living in the same city as him, and he had tracked her down.

As Max waited at the bus stop, he saw Mrs. Thompson walking towards him. Max’s tail started wagging furiously, and he ran towards her, jumping up and licking her face. Mrs. Thompson recognized Max immediately and burst into tears. She couldn’t believe that Max had remembered her after all these years.

Max stayed by Mrs. Thompson’s side, never leaving her again. He had found his forever home, and he knew that he would always be loyal to the woman who had saved his life. From that day on, Max and Mrs. Thompson became inseparable, and they spent the rest of their days together, happy and content.
