Puppy Sold

puppy sad

A small boy entered a pet shop, and asked the owner: "How much do you sell for that puppy?" The store owner said, "It would cost about 30-50 dollars."
The boy then drew out several coins from his pocket, "I only have 2,37 dollars, can i have a look at puppies that you sell?"
The store owner smiled, then he whistled calling his puppies. Not long after, there appeared his dog named Lady followed by five puppies behind him. They ran roundabout the store corridor.

However, there was a puppy that was seen running left behind. The boy pointed at that puppy and asked, "What is wrong with that puppy?"
The store owner explained that when born, the puppy had abnormality at its waist, therefore will suffer from disability for its entire life. The kid seemed happy hearing that and said, "I will buy that handicapped puppy!"
The store owner replied, "No, dont buy that one, it is handicapped. But if you want to have it, i can give it to you." The kid was dissapointed. He looked into the owner's eyes and said, "I do not want you to give me the puppy for free. Even though it was disabled, it should still have the same value as how other puppies are. I will pay for full for the puppy. For now i only have 2.35 dollars. But every day i shall save 0.5 dollar until i paid the puppy for full."
But the owner refused, "Son, you shouldnt buy this puppy. He cant run fast. He cant jump and play like any other normal puppies."
The boy was silented. Then he pulled his trousers, from there can be seen a pair of disabled legs. He looked into the store owner and said, "Sir, i cant run fast. I cant jump and play like how other kids used to. For that, i know that this puppy needs somebody who can understand his sufferings."

This time it's the store owner turn to bit his lips. Tears dropped from the edge of his eyes. He smiled and said, "I shall pray everyday that all these puppies will have good masters such as you."
