When I’m not out trying to help them,
I read animal rescue stories sent to me;
This tiny left behind touched my heart,
I hope his story makes many humans see
“Clearly, this little dog is special,
“He possesses a trust and confidence,
That has amazed and inspired us.”
Animal Protective Foundation Staff
Fighting for life, in a flooded street
In the aftermath of Hurricane Irene
A brave, 12-year old, left on his own
Tiny Chihuahua, who could barely see
A Good Samaritan eventually scooped him out
And then brought him to an Animal Rescue group
Despite the massive publicity, no one claimed him
This little left behind, was even featured on the news
So many abandoned animals would be lost without the rescue groups
When no one came forward, they gladly paid for his needed surgery
This brave little left behind orphan, required extensive dental work
Afterward, he was feeling much better, despite not being able to see
And soon, they put the word out that this tiny, brave, storm survivor
Was ready to be adopted, and looking forward to a loving new home
A compassionate woman soon stepped forward, and offered him hers
His new best friend is her Pit Bull, and now, he no longer has to roam
Please Support Animal Rescue Groups In Your Own Area,
As One Who Does Rescue Work, I Know We Truly Need Them;
And Please Consider Fostering or Adopting an Abandoned Animal,
A Lot More Assistance is Needed, to Bring Their Suffering, to an End.
