One dog has a "family"
who understands her needs, a warm bed, fresh water, a vet if she
bleeds.
The other has an "owner"
who isn't unkind, but isn't it so true, that love can be blind?
One dog sleeps inside
the home, next to the childrens bed. The other sleeps outside,
again, no soft place to lay her head.
One dog has a water
bowl, fresh water seldom wasted, The others bowl is dry...again;
forgotten in the haste.
One dog has a box of
toys, always eager to play fetch. The other doesn't know the game-
just watches from the fence.
When looking into
your dogs eyes, what do YOUR eyes see? A dog who has an "owner"
or one with a "family"?
