Ah yes, this story. A few years ago I found it on some other site, and when I read it I cried. And I re-read it again just now, and I almost cry. It's such a sad story, but it gets the point across quite well.

*teary eyed* Aw, that so sad. :( I already made up my mind to get a dog from the shelter when I have my own home, but that just made my mind up definitely.

No way can I read that whole thing without going into a severe depression. I cry every time I even go into the SPCA b/c I can't take them all home. :( We get all our pets there.

Omg that story.. I'm actually hysterically crying right now.. because I work at an SPCA. I'm the kennel help, I solely do the dogs every day. There's about 35 of them there and they're all so sweet and in need of love. They're treated well, but it's no comparison to a happy home. And it's true.. the older dogs rarely get adopted. In the past week.. 6 puppies have been adopted, and no older dogs. But I'm considering being a foster parent. Bringing home one of the dogs for a few days at a time, to socialize them, and show them love, and I'm thinking of adopting Annie Oakly, a beautiful hound mix, who's been there forever, and she's 5 years old. Sometimes when I'm cleaning out their kennels I get so sidetracked and I just sit in the cages with them, nuzzling them and hugging them. In reality, their lives aren't that terrible, especially with me being the kennel help. I have a huge soft spot in my heart for dogs, and I won't let a single one of those dogs go without a nice full belly everyday, and a nice thick warm blanket to sleep on. Since I've been working there, no dogs have died, except for Bad Mama, who literally ripped a man's face off, and we had no choice but to put her down.

I know how unfortunate other animals are, which is why I show my dogs all the love they show me. So basically, my babies are spoiled rotten.

*still crying*

Some people just aren't as sensitive. Doesn't mean you're heartless. I didn't start crying until his voice started breaking and THEN I cried. Sad story :(

I had to share, if this helps to get even one older dog adopted or changes someones mind about giving their older dog to a shelter than I have done something good.

I feel so bad about the poor dogs! :cry:

Yes, I am more emotional than all of my friends. I am glad that I got my cat from the Humane Society and I saw some older dogs get adopted, and a whole litter of cats to a number of people. This is so sad that people do this thing. :cry:

You're not the only one. My eyes did go wider at the end, but nowhere close to actual tears.


Was I the only one who could stand the reading? I felt like he just wasn't doing the story justice. It was too rushed and monotonous. I had to stop it halfway through because of that and because he started pausing, and I wanted to keep reading.
