My dogs live here!!
If you don't like paws and fuzzy ears Don't come inside because dogs live here You don't like cold noses & wiggley rears?? Then don't come inside 'cause my dogs live here. My home ought to smell like perfume, Dear? Then don't come inside, my dogs live here. If all of these things, you do not fear, Please, come on in, 'cause my dogs live here!!

Thru a dog's eye's
I lay in my cage all sad and blue no one wanted me it must be true
Some people came thru some of us got a home most were like me still all alone Hey kid, hey kid check me out I'm a real good dog without a doubt
Yeah, a nine yr. old would work just fine but there weren't any standing in line And just when I thought I was at the end of my rope a new face appeared hey, maybe there's hope
She had this sad look all over her face like she needed to fill a big empty space Hey lady,
hey lady I can do that please take me home
I don't like where I'm at I slowly crept up to her afraid, a little unsure and allowed her to gently stroke my fur
She smiled at me a little glint in her eye I thought, make up your'e mind I don't want to stay here and die
Well,she did take me home
arf, arf,
it was worth the wait maybe it was luck but I'm betting it was fate.By: April S.Balint
Deputy k-9 Cero:
A Tribute
I was your'e shield your'e partner always a friend
I took an oath to protect you, right to the end
I know your'e still thinking,
I should be by your'e side, In spirit I am,
I'm your'e courage, your'e bravery and that hasn't died
Life will go on a new partner a new friend a comrade like me on which you can depend
But hey, got a new job and doing just fine,
God made me an angel so I can watch over my friends and fellow k-9.By: April S. Balint
My Sparky's Gone
He looked at me as if to ask "Am I dying, Master?"
My words were silent as I tried Responding to him.
I nearly cried
To express, the truth I denied So,
I patted his head and lied.
I cuddled and held him
And told him I knew his pain. "Come now. Lay down and rest."
His eyes so innocent and unknowing
While mine were red and watery.
He looked at me, "So, tell me Master, dear. Why am I still lying here?
Why can`t I run and have some fun And chase the squirrles in the warm sun?" "Just rest for now, my little pet.
Don`t fear the dark.
You`ll soon be well."
I held his tiny trembling paw
I patted his head so gently and- His eyes expressed it clear "I`ll always love you, Master dear"
Sparky was put away On that November tenth night,
He hurts no more, he lost the war, He lost the fight.
He`s up in doggy heaven,
Shaking toys, playing ball
With Charley, Barney and Other friends, small and tall.
I know he's now pain free
He's playing safe and sound I know there will always be A bunch of pesky squirrles around.By: Bob Longfield
