When Zoe talks about her dog, Hatti, a big smile always appears on her face. Zoe is thirteen and she was born 1 a terrible illness (疾病). The illness stops her from 2 like other children. In 2006, Hatti came to her.
"I wanted a 3 of my own to help not just me but all my family. So I called Dogs for the Disabled, an organization which helps the disabled by 4dogs for them. Things became different after Hatti arrived. It's very 5. It can get many things for me, so my mom doesn't need to be around me all the time. If I need my mom, it can get my mom in a 6— even in the midnight," said Zoe.
"Hatti is my best friend, and it is 7 to have it around. I think it makes me laugh every day. I used to be scared 8 I was alone, but now Hatti can always stay with me," said Zoe.
Zoe's mom Helen 9, "The longer Zoe and Hatti are together, the happier Zoe becomes. She's becoming more independent (独立的). I'm 10glad and I thank Dogs for the Disabled very much."
