I Am Against Animal Cruelty

" Dog Gone It Why Me? "

I have been your friend when no one was there for you. I have followed you through Hell and high waters..

Been there when you had to cry. I have never forsaken you and just sat and looked in your eyes.

Why for little trouble did you have to take it out on me through time?

I have been there for you as we walked along the trails.

Why did you forsake me when the going went awry?

Now I sit in limbo wondering what is in store for me.

For being the one you use to care for may not be any more for me.

    Hi, I'm glad to see there are others out there still caring for these animals. I have adopted 2 now& can say they are one of the family.Thank you for being you. Wish there was more out there that felt the same way.

    Have six rescued dogs; and they are all wonderful and very loyal.

      Sad poem. I have six rescued dogs as well and it is satisfying to know they have a good loving home instead of being miserable and dead by now.

      It is wonderful that you take the responsibility. It is a tough, but rewarding responsibility.

    I rescued my last dog--just minutes before they were going to put him down at the pound. He was so sad, he grieved for two years---I could tell how much he missed his original family....every time he saw a pickup truck--he'd try to get away from me to chase it. Once he jumped out of my car window and chased a truck down the main street of town. The man in the truck stopped in a parking lot, got out of the truck and said , "You are a very bad dog!" There i was chasing the dog down the street...it would have been funny, except I knew he was just looking for his old owner...he must have been a truck dog. Once, he chased a truck down the highway...that time I feared for his life...I don't think people realize how much they mean to their dogs....
