some we will never know the story behind them what they went through. its all so very sad. all we can do is save them and help them to find the care and love that they need and deserve.
No one really knows how this poor dog stood at the post office with a sign on him. for if they took the time to put a sign on him maybe just maybe they loved him all the same but could not help him I say this because Ive seen it happen many times. with the economy the way it is many are losing their homes. many are unable to now care for their beloved animals.

There was an old man who loved his dog with all his heart. being in his 90's and homeless his self he decided to find his poor old dog a better place. no shelter would take him in, all full. the man had hardly no food for his beloved dog friend hardly any for him self. so he did what he thought would be best for his dog. he tied it up to the gate of the shelter. and maybe hoped and prayed his dog would get a little water a little food to feed his thin old bones. he did not know that poor old soul would grieve for him. would wait for him. and that's just what he did. he got lose and waited for his owner to come back . running away from the people who tried to help him. until he was hit by a car.
was this right for this old man to leave this poor dog NO . but he thought he was doing what was best trying to give him a chance.
I felt so sorry for that old dog. and my heart ached for the old man who prob saw the paper that week saying thanks to the old man who left your dog tied to the shelter gate for he was hit by a car. I know if that old man read that his heart must of broke for that poor old dog.
Such a sad story.

But on the bright side laws have changed and times have changed along with them. We have the internet as a tool to help teach those that have questions and help correct wrong ideas. Also the youth of america can teach the older generations that might not have access to this vast technology.
It might be sad that someone would tie a dog to something and leave it to possibily starve, but is is certinaly wrong!
I wouldn't post that it is ever the right or only thing to do, but that is just me.
