Welcome
I came across this poem many years ago, but it never fails to bring a tear to my eye. Our dogs are a part of the family, and join us both inside and outside the house and accompany us on many of our outings. Our dogs are obedience trained, and we only breed when we need something for our breeding program, to further our attempts, to strive for perfection in soundness, temperament and conformation. However, occasionally we do have some special babies in need of exceptional homes, if after reading the poem below, you feel that you could provide a loving and responsible life-long home for one of our puppies, please contact us for more information.

Do I go home today?

My family brought me home,
Cradled me in their arms.
They cuddled me and smiled at me,
And said I was full of charms.

They played with me,
And laughed with me.
They showered me with toys.
I sure do love my family,
Especially the girls and boys.

The children loved to feed me.
They gave me special treats.
They even let me sleep with them,
All snuggled in the sheets.

I used to go for walks,
Often several times a day.
They even fought to hold the leash,
I’m very proud to say.

These are the things I can’t forget,
A cherished memory.
I now live in the Shelter,
Without my family.

They used to laugh and praise me,
When I played with that old shoe.
But I didn’t know the difference
Between the old one and the new.

The kids and I would grab a rag,
For hours we would tug.
So I thought I did the right thing,
When I chewed the bedroom rug.

They said I was out of control,
And would have to live outside.
This I did not understand,
Although I tried and tried.

The walks stopped one by one.
They said they hadn’t time.
I wish that I could change things.
I wish I knew my crime.

My life became so lonely,
In the backyard on a chain.
I barked and barked all day long,
To keep from going insane.

So they brought me to the shelter,
But were embarrassed to say why.
They said I caused an allergy,
And then kissed me goodbye.

If I’d only had some classes,
When I was a little pup,
I wouldn’t have been
So hard to handle,
When I was all grown up.

“You only have one day left,”
I heard the worker say.
Does this mean a second chance?
Do I go home today?
