2023 (647) Sproet

Een plaatje om te zien deze Engelse Setter.

Maar we zochten een plekje waar men van wat kwijl of modder ook niet terug zou schrikken en dat hebben we gevonden.

2023 (646) Sansa

Ik ben Sansa. Ik had het fijn maar helaas mijn baasje is overleden en ik zat met mijn maatje al een maand alleen in appartement en we moesten eruit omdat er nieuwe huurders waren. Een oproep ging over internet om ons te adopteren maar niemand in Spanje reageerde. We werden naar de Refugio Sierra Nevada gebracht en daar was het maar koud afgelopen winter in de bergen. Omdat niemand ons samen wilde en in het nieuwe jaar wel iemand mijn vriendje wilde adopteren en ze blij waren dat hij dan in ieder geval weer warm in een huisje kon zitten, moest ik ook nog mijn maatje missen. Ik bleef achter.... Te zwart en te grijs en te oud. Maar toen mocht ik naar Nederland. Naar de Ranjaclub, opgericht door mijn voorgangers. Strobaaltjes in alle schakeringen geel, oranje en rood net als de Ranja limonade. Ik heb dus niet het juiste vachtkleurtje voor de Ranjaclub. Maar Maureen zegt dat mijn hart de juiste kleur heeft en dat ik daarom een echt Ranjaclub hondje ben. Ik ben weer thuis!

Once I was a lonely dog,

Just looking for a home.

I had no place to go,

No one to call my own.

I wandered up and down the streets,

in rain in heat and snow.

I ate what ever I could find,

I was always on the go.

My skin would itch, my feet were sore,

My body ached with pain.

And no one stopped to give a pat

Or to gently say my name.

I never saw a loving glance,

I was always on the run.

For people thought that hurting me

was really lots of fun.

And then one day I heard a voice

So gentle, kind and sweet,

And arms so soft reached down to me

And took me off my feet.

"No one again will hurt you"

Was whispered in my ear.

"You'll have a home to call your own

where you will know no fear."

"You will be dry, you will be warm,

you'll have enough to eat

And rest assured that when you sleep,

your dreams will all be sweet."

I was afraid I must admit,

I've lived so long in fear.

I can't remember when I let

A human come so near.

And as she tended to my wounds

And bathed and brushed my fur

She told me 'bout the rescue group

And what it meant to her.

She said, "We are a circle,

A line that never ends.

And in the center there is you

protected by new friends."

"And all around you are

the ones that check the pounds,

And those that share their home

after you've been found."

"And all the other folk

are searching near and far.

To find the perfect home for you,

where you can be a star."

She said, "There is a family,

that's waiting patiently,

and pretty soon we'll find them,

just you wait and see."

"And then they'll join our circle

they'll help to make it grow,

so there'll be room for more like you,

who have no place to go."

I waited very patiently,

The days they came and went.

Today's the day I thought,

my family will be sent.

Then just when I began to think

It wasn't meant to be,

I knew them in a heart beat,

I could tell they felt it too.

They said, "We have been waiting

for a special dog like you."

Now every night I say a prayer

to all the gods that be.

"Thank you for the life I live

and all you've given me.

But most of all protect the dogs

in the pound and on the street.

And send a Rescue Person

to lift them off their feet."
