You already knew this, but listen to this song
which say's it all...
GoD and DoG

I looked at the caged animals in the shelter. . . the cast offs of human society.

I saw in their eyes, love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal and I was angry.

"God" I said, "This is terrible.
Why don't you do something...?"

God was silent for a moment
and then he spoke softly.

"I have done something" he replied,
"I created you."

Every dog must have a soul
Somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances
Are buried with his pride.
Where he decides the good and bad,
The wrong way from the right,
And where his judgment is
Carefully hidden from our sight.

A dog must have a secret place
Where thought abides,
A sort of close acquaintance that
He trusts in and confides.
And when accused unjustly for Himself
He cannot speak,
Rebuked, He finds within his soul
The comfort he must seek.

He'll Love, tho' he is unloved,
And he'll serve tho' badly used,
And one kind word will wipe away
The times when he's abused.
Although his heart may break in two
His love will still be whole,
Because God gave to every dog
An understanding Soul!

I want to save a rescue dog that no one else would pick.
But please...
I couldn't handle one that was too old...or sick.

I want a dog with fluffy hair that's silky to the touch;
A dog I wouldn't have to groom
(the work would be too much!).

My allergies are bad, and so the dog must never shed
or jump up on my velvet couch
or sleep with me in bed.

The size is not important, but the dog can't be too tall.
And while I'm not being choosy,
I'd prefer he not be small.

Cute and cuddly, sweet and smart
and one who doesn't chew.
Of course he must be housebroken (my carpeting is new).

A dog who's quiet in his crate (I work twelve hours a day);
A dog who isn't hyper,
and yet one who likes to play.

Of course all vetting must be done (it's easier for me).
And I don't want to pay a lot
for an "adoption fee".

Ah, yes...it truly warms my heart to save a dog in need.
I'll pick a dog that no one wants:
a noble choice indeed!

A dog that no one else could love: a homeless dog that's needy....
I only wish those rescues weren't so fussy--
and oh so greedy!

A rescue run to Wisconsin was quickly done the week-end our family was helping move my mother into a Milwaukee Nursing home.

"Cats Meow and Dogs Bark Rescue" was in charge and able to save many dogs from a "Commercial Breeder" before they were destroyed.

Included in the rescue were a few Poodles that were quickly snatched up as I was not home. However, one Poodle was never picked up.

Picket Fence Poodle Rescue mostly deal with breeders, puppy mills, back-yard-breeders (BYB), families and other shelters, but "Polly" the Poodle comes to us from an environment which I rarely work with.

This Poodle was so scared out of her mind that you could not catch her, touch her or hold her. There was so much hurt and pain due to her entire life (3 years) living in loneliness and neglect which she had to endure to survive. She knew nothing of love.

It is sad to see such poor quality come from such horrible conditions where her only purpose was to produce puppies for the public.

Poor Polly the pathetic Poodle had nothing at all going for her, except the hope in her eyes begging for a chance at a new life.

Just like Lady and Phoenix pictured below...

Have you felt this type of pain with loneliness and begged for a new chance? Or have you ever seen it in the eyes of others?

Jesus said in Matthew 11:28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”

Come to Jesus and learn about his love for you so you can surrender yourself to him for a chance at your new life!
