Christmas
Wishes
On Christmas
morning, I wish...
For every dog and
cat searching trash cans for breakfast...
A filled bowl with his name printed in bright letters.
For every dog who
slept fitfully last night, chained in a frozen yard...
A soft, warm bed with a person snoring gently nearby.
For every shelter
animal, spending Christmas morning in a lonely run...
A forever home, filled with the sounds and smells of family.
For every
"Christmas" puppy given today...
A tolerant, caring owner who won't abandon you as you grow into a real dog.
For every ailing
pet...
Enough money for your owner to pay the bills to make you well.
For every lost dog
and cat...
A clear, safe road, and well-marked path, to lead you home.
For every old and
tired friend...
A warm fire, and a soft bed, to ease your aches and pains.
And, for every
Heart Dog and Cat at the Bridge...
A moment when you know that you are remembered today, missed again, and loved forever.
