Belated Christmas Wish

I just found this on another nestie's blog...the tears flowed while reading.

On Christmas Morning..........I wish....

For every dog 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 dog, spending Christmas morning in a soiled run, a forever home, filled with sounds & 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, a clear, safe road, and well marked path to lead you home.

For every old & tired friend, a warm fire, and a soft bed, to ease your aches and pains.

And for every dog at the Bridge, a moment when you know that you are remembered today, missed again, and loved forever.
