| Had to share this- A must read! I wish I knew who the author of this is but I don't. I am sending it to all who love animals. I RESCUED A HUMAN TODAY Her eyes met mine as she walked down the corridor peering apprehensively into the kennel. I felt her need instantly and knew I had to help her. I wagged my tail, not too exuberantly, so she wouldn't be afraid. As she stopprd at my kennel I blocked her view from a little accident I had in the back of my cage. I didn't want her to know that I hadn't been walked today. Sometimes the shelter keepers get too busy and I didn't want her to think too poorly of them. As she read my kennel card I hoped that she wouldn't feel sad about my past. I only have the future to look foward to and want to make a difference in someone's life. She got down on her knees and made little kiddy sounds at me. I shoved my shoulder and slid of my head up against the bars to confort her. Gentle fingertips caressed my neck; she was desperate for companionship. A tear fell down her cheek and I raised my paw to assure her that all would be well. Soon my kennel door opened and her smile was so bright that I instantly jumped into her arms. I would promise to keep her safe. I would promise to always be by her side and do everything I could to see that radiant smile and sparkle in her eyes. I was so fortunate that she came down my corridor. So many more are out there who haven't walked the corridors. So many to be saved. At least I could save one. I rescued a human today. I loved this when I read it and wanted to share. |

| I love this. I don't know what I would do without my two beautiful fur kids. They brought me through terrible times when my husband died and they are my best friends. I adore them.

| Oh, that is so sweet. I am going to have to print that out and send some email on that one. And those little rescues do rescue us just as much!
