The article A Shelter Dog asks God is one that everyone should read. My wife wrote an article for our local animal rescue newsletter back in May 2001 and the article you posted about the shelter dog make me want to share this one with you.

I’m’m only a puppy, born a short time ago. I have a nice mommy and six brothers and sisters to play with. There’s a man who comes outside to bring us food and water. He yells at my mommy a lot, asking her why she had to have puppies and what is he going to do with us. don’t’t think he likes us very much and don’t’t understand why? BuI’m’m only a puppy.
The man came out today and loaded mommy and me and all my sisters and brothers into a cage and onto a truckI’mI’m so scared! We drove to a place where there are lots of other dogs and we were all put into another cage. I heard someone say we were at the animal shelter. I smell fear, anger, sadness anddon’tn’t understandI’mI’m only a puppy.
I long to run and play, I dream about it all the time. People come by and look at us all the time, saying how cute we are, and twthey’vey’ve taken one of my brothers and sisters away. I feel happy for them, budon’ton’t know whI’m I’m only a puppy.
