My Little Puppy --Breeder's Poem
I love my little puppy; she makes
my house a home.
She is my very best friend; I never feel
alone.
She makes me smile;
She makes me laugh;
She fills my heart with love . . .
Did some breeder breed her, or did
she fall down from above?
I've never been a breeder, never
seen life through their eyes;
But,still I hold my little puppy
and just sit and criticize.
I've never known their anguish; I've never felt
their pain, the caring of their charges, through
snow or wind or rain.
I've never sat the whole night
through, waiting for babies to be born, the stress
and trepidation when they're still not there by
dawn. I've never felt the heartache of a little
life in my hands, this darling little baby, who
weighs but 60 grams.
Should you do that instead of this
. . . or this instead of that?
Alone you fight and hope one day,
he'll grow to be a dog.
You pray he'll live to bring joy to
another family, and make a house a home.
You know it's all up to you; you'll
fight this fight alone.
Formula, bottles, heating pads,
you've got to get this right, two-hour feedings for
this tiny guy, throughout the day and night.
In your heart you know you're
almost sure to lose the fight, to save this little
baby, but God willing you just MIGHT.
Day one he's in there fighting; you
say a silent prayer.
Day two & three, he's doing well,
with lots of love and care.
Day four & five . . . he's still
alive; your hopes soar to the heavens.
Day six he slips away again, dies
in your hands.
Day seven. You take this little
angel, and bury him alone.
With aching heart and burning
tears, and an exhausted groan, you ask yourself,
"Why do this? Why suffer all this pain?"
But seeing the joy your puppies
bring . . it really self-explains.
So, when you think of breeders and
label them with "Greed,"
Think about what they endure to
fill another's need.
When you buy a puppy, and with your
precious dollars part, remember, You only pay with
money .. . . we pay with a piece of our
heart.
