With a new addition to the family, Holly hopes for his little boy named Marcelo to overcome his fear of dogs. With the help of the family’s canine Mini, the toddler soon realizes that there was nothing to be afraid of.
New home
In October 2018, Marcelo joined the family and was introduced to Mini, the puppy. Marcelo did not appreciate the warm welcome from the canine and would often run away whenever the dog was in sight.
On the other hand, Mini loved playing with little kids. The perseverance she’d shown after chasing Marcelo multiple times was soon rewarded when the child slowly comes at terms with her.
Change of heart
Marcelo started to get more curious about the furry friend and slowly approached her. It was when Mini gave him a little kiss that the child realized that dogs were okay and not terrifying at all.
Mini knew how to make Marcelo feel safe. She would often watch over him if he were in the bathtub or playing outdoors. Whenever he’d get sick, the dog would lay quietly next to him as if she was making sure that her friend was okay.
The two became inseparable. Mini had to always be there for Marcelo no matter what. Whether it was watching him read books or laying outside on the hammock, she’d love to spend all day being beside her human and making more memories with him each day.
Mini became Marcelo’s comfort blanket. Holly is so glad to have this little angel watch over her son. She noticed that Marcelo has learned a lot from this tiny creature and is slowly developing courage in conquering his fears.
At thirteen years old, Mini has done a lot for little Marcelo. It was so heartwarming to watch the two best friends grow together.
