Tiny, big, medium or tall - short hair, long fur or sleek.
Homes are needed for abandoned dogs - every single week.
Encouragement, from “Pedigree” - awareness is their goal.
Please adopt a dog - open your arms, hearts, and souls.
Each dog is different - with their funny, quirky ways.
Doing things that will leave you smiling for days!
Invest some of your time, to teach them, and guide.
Great love you will receive, from the companion by your side.
Running around - with big grins on their faces,
Enjoying their new life, with new smells and new places.
Everlasting love, your new dog will give you.
And, devotion aplenty - with a friendship so true.
Don\’t ever judge them - for they will accept you as you are.
Only, expect to be hero-worshiped, from near or afar!
Plenty of time to form memories and laughter.
To bond with you, play with you, but will need looking after.
It\’s so rewarding - sharing your life with one dog, or more.
Only, don\’t accept my word for it - (though it is hard to ignore!)
Now is a good time to visit your local animal shelter.
Dogs all in need of loving homes - each one a heart-melter.
Retrievers, terriers, spaniels, crossbreeds - one will be just right for you.
In need of a new start, and to live their lives through.
Valiant people, come forward, your heart you must lend.
Enjoy your new life, with your new four-legged friend.
