About This Quote
When Charlie placed (the puppy) back on the floor, it was not his idea of a romantic evening, unless you happened to be a twisted exterminator, he thought. Charlie had taken in the puppy when it had wandered into his yard. The puppy had been injured in an accident and Charlie had nursed it back to health. When he realized the dog was part wolf, he was shocked.
He didn’t know how he knew that, but he just did. He wanted the dog badly and assumed it would be safe with him. It was not long before Charlie discovered that wolves are among the most ferocious predators on Earth.
As is often the case with man’s best friend, Charlie proved to be its worst enemy.
