on Christmas morning I wish..

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

Oh Krista that is beautiful... if only all those wishes could be granted *Tears*.

Krista...shame on you making me cry first thing this morning. Just kidding.

Wow that is sooo sweet. I wish all of those things too and what I wouldn't give to make it possible.

Krista, you have me in tears here. How I wish, in my lifetime, that would come true. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you Krista. This captures exactly how we all feel doesn't it? It's very appropriate and lovely. :) Now if all of it could come true-the world would be pretty close to being perfect.

That was sweet and touching- and AMEN! ...

Thanks for posting that. It brought tears to my eyes, too.

I'll be working at the adoption center on Christmas eve and will post it for all to see.
