Twee maanden lang genoten jij en baasje Fred van elkaar. Tot je baasje heel plots onverwacht in jouw bijzijn overleed. Je moet gehuild, gejankt en geroepen hebben om hulp, maar niemand die je hoorde. Het was warm en er kwam noodweer maar niemand die zich om jou bekommerde. De volgende dag was je 12e verjaardag. Geen lekkers, geen wandelingen, geen aandacht, maar eenzaamheid en geen eten en drinken. Een dag later ontdekte een bezoeker dat je baasje was overleden en je werd direct naar het asiel gebracht. Weer zat je eenzaam in een kennel. Pas een dag later kwam je ook nog via omwegen hier terug in de opvang. Wat was je blij me te zien! Maar logisch liet je me niet meer uit het oog. Je raakte al overstuur als er een hek tussen ons zat. Hoewel ik je graag zag was het toch echt beter voor jou om baasjes te krijgen waar het zo geregeld kan worden dat je zelden alleen hoeft te zijn. Gelukkig hebben we deze baasjes gevonden. Je bent zo welkom bij hen!

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."
