Lady Long Legs
This is Bella's favourite spot, simply because her front legs are sooooooooo long it allows her to sit more comfortably.This isn't the best photo I managed to get but I was amused by the fact that because of the angle of the shot,she looks as if she only has two front legs,poor girl.This is her story.
RESCUE
"Once I was a lonely dog, just looking for a home.
I had no place to go, no one to call my own.
I wandered up and down the streets, in rain, in heat in snow.
I ate what ever I could find, I was always on the go.
My skin would itch, my feet were sore, my body ached with pain.
And no one stopped to give a pat or gently say my name.
I never saw a loving glance, I was always on the run.
For people thought that hurting me was really lots of fun.
And then one day I heard a voice ,so gentle, kind and sweet,
And arms so soft reached down to me and took me off my feet."
"No one again will hurt you, "was whispered in my ear,
"you'll have a home to call your own, where you will know no fear.
You will be dry, you will be warm, you'll have enough to eat
And rest assured that when you sleep, your dreams they will all be sweet."
"I was afraid I must admit, I've lived so long in fear.
I can't remember when I let a human come so near.
And as she tended to my wounds and bathed and brushed my fur,
She told me 'bout the rescue group and what it meant to her."
She said," We are a circle, a line that never ends.
And in the centre there is you, protected by new friends.
And all around you are the ones who check the many pounds,
Those that share their home with you,after you've been found.
And all the other folk I know are searching near and far
To find the perfect home for you, where you can be a star."
She said, "There is a family, that's waiting patiently,
and pretty soon we'll find them, just you wait and see.
And then they'll join our circle they'll help to make it grow,
so there'll be room for more like you, who have no place to go."
"I waited very patiently, the days they came and went.
Today's the day" I thought, "my family will be sent.
Then just when I began to think it wasn't meant to be,
there were two people standing there, just gazing down at me.
I felt a special bond with them,I could tell they felt it too."
"We have a loving home" they said" for a special dog like you."
"Now every night I say a prayer, to all the Gods that be.
Thank you for the life I live and all you've given me.
But most of all protect the dogs in the pound and on the street.
And send a Rescue Person to lift them off THEIR feet."
Bella is one of these rescue dogs, who like all other rescue dogs has that something extra to give - L O V E and D E V O T I O N in abundance and we are one of those families ready to make her life comfortable and secure.
So,now it is time to disassemble the parts of Bella's jigsaw puzzle in order to piece this new one together, because having come to the end of such a dreadful episode in her short existence, her life is just beginning with us as a family. We love you Bella Boo.
