I found something beautiful I found the following on a pet rescue site and fell in love with it. Here In This House....... I will never know the loneliness I hear in the barks of the other dogs 'out there'. I can sleep soundly, assured that when I wake my world will not have changed. I will never know hunger, or the fear of not knowing if I'll eat. I will not shiver in the cold, or grow weary from the heat. I will feel the sun's heat, and the rain's coolness, and be allowed to smell all that can reach my nose. My fur will shine, and never be dirty or matted. Here in this house... There will be an effort to communicate with me on my level. I will be talked to and, even if I don't understand, I can enjoy the warmth of the words. I will be given a name so that I may know who I am among many. My name will be used in joy, and I will love the sound of it! Here in this house... I will never be a substitute for anything I am not. I will never be used to improve peoples' images of themselves. I will be loved because I am who I am, not someone's idea of who I should be. I will never suffer for someone's anger, impatience, or stupidity. I will be taught all the things I need to know to be loved by all. If I do not learn my lessons well, they will look to my teacher for blame. Here in this house... I can trust arms that hold, hands that touch... knowing that, no matter what they do, they do it for the good of me. If I am ill, I will be doctored. If scared, I will be calmed. If sad, I will be cheered. No matter what I look like, I will be considered beautiful and known to be of value. I will never be cast out because I am too old, too ill, too unruly, or not cute enough. My life is a responsibility, and not an afterthought. I will learn that humans can almost, sometimes, be as kind and as fair as dogs. Here in this house... I will belong. I will be home. |
awwwwww soooo sweet! makes me want to go hug my babies :) |
It is beautiful Thank you for posting! |
That just brightened my day, but kind of made me sad at the same time. :( Thank you for posting though! This sort of thing always reiterates my want to rescue puppies. :) |
that makes me want to go adopt a dog.. the only reason i can't go do that.. is because i'd end up coming home with the whole shelter.. haha i swear.. one day i will!!! <3 |
So bittersweet. I wish all dogs could have loving homes like ours |
Very sweet! Thanks! :) |
I always say when I come home to the darks barking at me to hurry inside.. that it is music to my ears.. I know all is ok.. on the flip side.. the barking can be annoying and get to you when they all try to out do each other when there is a knock at the door or a car goes by... great post.. |
Wonderful post. Thank you. |
That was very sweet! Almost brought tears to my eyes for all the dogs out there that can't say that. Thanks for posting! |
Thank you so much for sharing this. I hope some day that all dogs and animals may feel this way. |
