AM I FAMOUS NOW ??


I WAS BORN today.  One of seven.  My daddy is very famous.  I have lots of half brothers and sisters.  My mother is very famous too.  Since she got famous, she has only puppies now.  No more loving hand, no more fun trips...just puppies.  She is very sad when they leave her.

I left my house today.  I didn't want to go, so I hid behind my mommy, they just reached down and got me.  I don't like you.  They said one day I'm going to be famous too. What does that mean?  Am I  going to a new home that is filled with love?  You carried me away, I don't think that you like me much.

My new home is far away.  I'm scared and afraid.  I will try to be brave.

Oh my heart says:  BE BRAVE!  Did my brothers and sisters go to homes like mine?  I'm hungry,  they won't feed me much, because they want me to be small.  I can't bite or snap when children are mean to me.   I can't understand why they kick me?  I am quiet, but the man kicks and hits me, then he yells at me. I'm hungry, but they won't feed me, they want me to stay small.  The lady doesn't feed me good food like my mamma did.  She just throws  the dry food on the ground and complains that I'm not what she was looking for when she bought me.  I try to get close for a hug or just someone to touch and pet me.  Sometimes the food smells bad, but after a while, I eat it anyway.

Today I had my own puppies.  I had  six.  They are wonderful, so  tiny and warm.  AM I FAMOUS NOW? I can't wait to play with them, but they are so tiny.  They are crying now, they are hungry, and it's so cold in this hole under the house. I am so hungry.  In the day time, it's so hot, something bites me.  I scratch and scratch. Oh how I wish someone would throw me some food.  I am also very thirsty.  Two of my babies got cold last the night, I couldn't make them warm again.  They are gone.  Maybe if I take the rest to the porch, I can get some food.  We are all very weak.

Today they took us away.  It was too much trouble to feed us.  I now only have two babies, the others got cold one day and I couldn't get them wake them up again.

Someone grabbed my two babies.  They were crying and whimpering.  They were put in a truck with boxes on it.  I can't see my babies now. ARE THEY FAMOUS NOW? I hope so, I miss them.  Where did they go?

Why am I here?   There are so many dogs here!!This place smells of urine, fear and sickness.  Now I am hungry , dirty and in pain and now unwanted.  I think the worst is UNWANTED. No one came to take me home, I waited and waited, I'm trying to be so good.

Today someone came for me.  Am I going to a new home?, Will  I be loved and wanted?  They put a rope around my neck and lead me to a room that is very clean. It's so nice to smell how clean it is here. They put me on a shiny table.  They hold me and hug me.  Oh! it feels so good!!!! Yes...yes now I am loved, but  I feel so tired and lay over against the one who is holding me.  I hope they don't mind me going to sleep, I tried to stay awake, but I can't keep my eyes open, I hope they will love me now. I love them and can't wait to get to know them.

TODAY, SOMEONE CARED...AM I FAMOUS NOW?


PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHO YOUR BABIES GO TO.

Make sure they are wanted and loved.  Don't let them end up like this little girl.  Love them for any way they turn out,  show dog or just a lap warmer.  Be a good pet owner!!!


WHERE DO PETS COME FROM?

Adam and Eve said, "Lord, when we were in the garden, you walked with us every day.  Now we do not see you any more.  We are lonesome here, and it is difficult for us to remember how much you love us."

 God said," I will create a companion for you that will be with you and who will be a reflection of my love for you, so that you will love me even when you cannot see me.   Regardless of how selfish or childish or unlovable you may be, this new companion will accept you as are and will love you as I do, in spite of yourselves."

 God created a new animal to be a companion for Adam and Eve.  It was a good animal, God was pleased.

The new animal was pleased to be with Adam and Eve, and he wagged his tail.

Adam said, "Lord, I have already named all the animals in the Kingdom and I cannot think of a name for this new animal."

God said,  I have created this new animal to be a reflection of my love for you, his name will be a reflection of my own name, and you will call him " DOG."


DOGS TEN COMMANDMENTS

1. My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years-any separartion from you will be very painful.

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3. Place your trust in me - it is crucial for my well being.

4. Don't be angry with me for long and lon't lock me up as punishment..You have your work, your friends, your entertainment... I HAVE ONLY YOU!!!

5. Talk to me.  Even if I don't undertand your words, I understand your voice when you are speaking to me.

6. Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hands but I choose  NOT to bite YOU.

7. Be aware that however you treat me, I'll never forget it.

8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncorrperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me.  Perhaps I'm not getting the right food, I've been out in the sun too long or my heart may be getting old and weak.

9. Take care of me when I get old.  You too will grow old.

10. Go with me in difficult journeys.  Never say, " I can't bear to watch it" or "let it happen in my absence.  " Everything is easier for ME if you are there.  Remember that I LOVE YOU.


THE PRAYER OF A STRAY
 
Dear God,
Please send me someone who will care about me!  I'm tired of running, I am sick with dispair.  My body is aching: it is so racked with pain and , DEAR GOD, I pray as I run in the rain that someone will love me and give me a home, a warm cozy bed and an big juicy bone.
My last owner tied me all day in the yard, sometimes with no water and boy was that hard.
I chewed my leash and ran away, better to rummage in garbage and live as a stray.
Now I am tired and hungry and cold, I'm so afraid that I will not grow old.  I have been chashed with sticks and hit with stones, while I was running the streets just looking for bones.
I am not bad GOD, please help me if you can, for I have become the "victim of man."
I am wormy and ridden with fleas and all I want is a owner to please.
If you find one for me, I'll try to be good, I won't chew on their shoes and I'll do as I should.
I'll love them, and protect them and try to obey, when they tell me to sit, lie down or to stay.
I don't think I'll make it too long on my own, because I getting so weak and I so all alone.
Each night  as I sleep in the bushes I cry, I pray "DEAR GOD" don't let me die!
I have so much devotion and love to give, I ask "DEAR LORD", please let me live.
So please DEAR GOD, please answer my prayer
send me someone who will really care.
