| NOBODY’S DOG
Today, I found Nobody’s Dog Her ribs were beginning to show through A once shiny black coat At first, she tucked her tail tightly and ran Then, ever hopeful, returned with a tentative wag
I bet she was cute as a puppy Somebody picked her out special, took her home And made her believe she would always be loved But some humans changer their minds As often as dirty socks
Even so, the betrayed black dog is still loving them Futilely waiting for them to come back for her She had a name once, and now she can’t understand For you see, a dog’s love never dies
Today, I found Nobody’s Dog One of millions abandoned each year By owner’s who take the coward way out
They won’t see her slowly starve or freeze to death Be hit by a car, or live at the mercy of strangers As she begs for a scrap of attention
Today, the Shelter rescued Nobody’s Dog. There, she’ll be fed, she’ll be loved, and hopefully She’ll be claimed by a more fitting, deserving human
If not, she’ll go to an even better place One where dogs are always loved And are never thrown away on a cruel whim
But, she still yearns To be Somebody’s Dog once more | |

You must be right Joan because I'd have a yard full of retired STB's easily. After seeing how they live first hand this spring I want to take them all. There's already a spot for George's old stall buddy when it's his time to move on :D. You did a great thing Denise, a few people may have stopped and picked him up but you went the extra and gave him vet care and found him a home. Most would have dropped him off at the SPCA and let them deal with it. Because of you another dog can be helped by them. | |

| ok this made me sad and :D happy too.. I have seen far to many dogs go down this path and not so many are lucky enough to be rescued like Sam.. Bay-Lee give us hope for people to do the right thing .. Denise if more people were like you we'd live in a near perfect world. :cheers: | |

I just did what I thought was the right thing, there was a living being that needed my help, I had the good sense to stop and pick him up.. I would do it again in a heartbeat.. | |
