Hello everyone, it\u2019s Wilma here and I\u2019m having one more attempt at a dog Christmas carol. I\u2019m being a bit more serious today and giving you something to think about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Away in an alley, not snuggled in bed,
\nthe poor little puppy, lay down his sweet head.
\nNo human to love him, no treats in his bowl,
\nthat poor little puppy, a lonely, sad soul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The night owls are screeching, the puppy awakes,
\nand hides in a corner and whimpers and shakes.
\nAlong comes a person and looks on the sight,
\nthe sad tiny puppy alone in the night.
\nShe scoops up the puppy and holds him close by,
\nand strokes his small head til he lets out a sigh.
\nShe bathes him and brushes him, makes sure he\u2019s fed,
\nthen kisses him gently and tucks him in bed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Our dear little puppy has found a new home,
\nwith love, warmth and comfort, no more on his own.
\nAnd so please this Christmas, give help if you can,
\nto all those in need, be they puppy or man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I know our Vet has a box for donations of dog food to help feed the dogs of families who need help from food banks this Christmas and there is also collecting going on at Pets at Home for dogs in need at Christmas. Wherever you are, please spare a bag of your treats or ask your human to help in some way to help those dogs less fortunate than you are. I know most of us around here are pretty spoiled, but there are lots of dogs who aren\u2019t and if you can do something to help them that would be lovely.
\nHave a really good Monday<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n
