For every dog who slept fitfully last night, chained in a frozen yard - a
soft, warm bed with a person snoring gently nearby.

For every shelter dog, spending New Year's Eve in a soiled run - a forever
home, filled with sounds and smells of family.

For every "Christmas" puppy given - a tolerant, caring owner who won't
abandon you as you grow into a real dog.

For every ailing pet - enough money for your owner to pay the bills to make
you well.

For every lost dog - a clear, safe road, and well marked path, to lead you
home.

For every old and tired friend - a warm fire, and a soft bed, to ease your
aches and pains.
