March 23, 2021 - National Puppy Day

 HI GUYS!🐾

Today is National Puppy Day!

Did you know that National Puppy Day was created in 2006, by a lady named Colleen Paige? I wasn't even born yet.....imagine that! Even though me and Ciena aren't puppies anymore, our mom still calls us her babies!!! This special day was started to fawn over and to celebrate the unconditional love that you all give to us cuddly guys and gals. So bring on some more play time, and maybe some extra treats.......especially if you want us to pose for those adorable photo shoots. 

This day was also created to recognize that there are so many pets in the shelters who REALLY need a forever home. My mom wrote this poem and she said that I could share it with you in honor of this day. We hope that it will open your hearts so you can bring home your special companion, whether a puppy or older dog. Ya know... no matter what our age.... we are all a bunch of four-legged, fur balls that deserve to be loved and have a forever home!  (P.S. cats are pretty cool too!!!)

 For The Love of a Shelter Dog

I am a shelter dog who watches you walk by,
I wag my tail and hope that you will give me a try. 
You see, I am not a bad dog who deserved to be left here,
Unfortunately, it is just that no one wanted me near.
I may be young, or I may be old,
I may be shy, or I may be bold. 
I may have been neglected or hurt in some way,
But I carry no grudge for I live in the moment each day.
I feel as though I have been here for so long,
Please take me to your home, for with you I belong. 
I promise to guard you and keep you safe,
If only you would have a little faith.
I will work to be good and love you so much,
For I truly need your gentle touch.
Please don’t walk away and leave me behind,
Adopt me today for it would truly be kind.

 PLEASE CONSIDER PET ADOPTION AND ALWAYS LOVE AND BE KIND TO YOUR PET!

Till next time it's paws up and high five!!!!

Chewy Man🐕
