Sacred Days and Wiggly Tails in Bali: The Dog Who Waited in Silence: Shy's Story

Title: Sacred Days and Wiggly Tails in Bali: The Dog Who Waited in Silence – Shy’s Story Author: Carla Prado-Johnsson Under the soft rain outside a Balinese villa sat a silent, trembling dog. He didn’t bark. He didn’t move. He simply waited. When Charlotte first saw him, she didn’t know that this quiet moment would change both of their lives. Shy had known fear, hunger, and loneliness. But through patience, kindness, and love, he learned to trust again — one gentle day at a time. Set among the temples, rice fields, and beaches of Bali, The Dog Who Waited in Silence is a touching true story of healing, courage, and friendship. Told through simple yet powerful storytelling, it invites children (and the grown-ups who love them) to slow down, listen, and see the beauty in stillness. Through Charlotte’s gentle care and the wisdom of her pack of Bali rescue dogs — Onyx, Jay, Bagong, and Shy — this story reminds readers that every soul, no matter how broken, can find peace when met with compassion.
