A MUST read for everyone
Friendship isn't about who you have known the longest, but about who came and never left your side~unknown
The last words of a very intelligent dog
Before I go, I just want to remind all you pups and kitties to always have plenty of love for your humans even if they might be grumpy. Sometimes they get caught up in all sorts of things and take us for granted. That doesn't mean they don't love and need us. Also you humans, remember why you have us around. If you are feeling stressed out, pet us. It's been proven to lower your blood pressure. Also keep lots of treats handy. And for everyone, enjoy life. Always take time for walks, frisbee and CAR RIDES.
And one last thing for you humans. If you are considering adding another dog to your home, think about giving one of older dogs a chance. We don't chew up your shoes, pee inside (well, not unless we really can't help it) or need lots of training. Plus you will have a very loyal friend for the rest of our lives. ~Domi, the therapy dog, 1996-2009

The House Dog's Grave
by Robinson Jeffers (1887-1962)
I've changed my ways a little; I cannot now
Run with you in the evenings along the shore,
Except in a kind of dream; and you,
If you dream a moment,
You see me there.
So leave awhile the paw-marks on the front door
Where I used to scratch to go out or in,
And you'd soon open; leave on the kitchen floor
The marks of my drinking-pan.
I cannot lie by your fire as I used to do
On the warm stone,
Nor at the foot of your bed; no,
All the nights through I lie alone.
But your kind thought has laid me less than six feet
Outside your window where firelight so often plays,
And where you sit to read‚
And I fear often grieving for me‚
Every night your lamplight lies on my place.
You, man and woman, live so long, it is hard
To think of you ever dying.
A little dog would get tired, living so long.
I hope that when you are lying
Under the ground like me your lives will appear
As good and joyful as mine.
No, dears, that's too much hope:
You are not so well cared for as I have been.
And never have known the passionate undivided
Fidelities that I knew.
Your minds are perhaps too active, too many-sided...
But to me you were true.
You were never masters, but friends. I was your friend.
I loved you well, and was loved. Deep love endures
To the end and far past the end. If this is my end,
I am not lonely. I am not afraid. I am still yours.

Mom has been walking the local shelter for years, and makes sure the dogs that can get out and go to rescues do and give the rest of the dogs a better chance to be adopted. She wishes she could take them all, but thinks maybe this might be all right to do to.

There is an SPCA in our neighbourhood. It's so good to see so many visitors over there during the weekends. Those furfriends are really well-taken care of and I hope they can find their forever homes soon!
Our Mika is from SPCA about three years ago.
AMEN,,,please adopt.
Woo know we are on this page with woo!
Mom has some khuties to share the Xterra with on Sunday!

I love the shelter here. It used to be a rather bad place that always got flooded and was just depressing. They tore it down after they built a great big one up on a hill and it is beautiful. It has a cat room where the cats that get along with each other can play, eat, do their business behind an area for their privacy and the best is they can look out giant windows while sitting on their trees. They have yet another cat room with cats in big cages..some are next to the big windows. Then there is the dog room which is very nice, the puppy room which is big and another room for other pets like quinea pigs or hamsters and birds. It's come a very long way and I will always support it. Lots of love, Holly and mom
::thumbs up::
That's a great one! I like that a lot!
Oh yes,
we wish for all the fur babies to be adopted and have forever homes.
Thank you for posting this to remind us all.

The difference between adoption and purchase... is the fought involved.
Just sayin.

We could not possibly agree more. Adoption is the best way to go.
