| A Dog Is For Life Not Just For ChristmasTwas the night before Christmas and all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there.
The children were nestled all snug in their beds With no thought of the dog filling their heads.
And mum in her kerchief, and dad in his cap, Knew he was cold but didn’t care about that.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter, I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash, Figuring he was free of his chain and into the trash.
The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When what, to my wondering eyes should appear, But Santa Claus - and his eyes full of tears.
He unchained the dog once so lively and quick, Last year’s Christmas present, now painfully thin and sick.
More rapid than eagles he called the dogs name. And the dog ran to him, despite all his pain.
"Now DASHER! Now DANCER! Now PRANCER and VIXEN!! On COMET! On CUPID! On DONER and BLITZEN!!
To the top of the porch! To the top of the wall! Let’s find this dog a home where he’s loved by all."
I knew in an instant there would be no gifts this year For Santa Claus had made one thing quite clear...
The gift of a dog is not just for a season. We had got the poor pup for all the wrong reasons.
In our haste to think of the kids a gift There was one important thing that we missed.
A dog should be family and cared for the same. You don’t give a gift then put it on a chain.
And I heard him exclaim as he rode out of sight, "You weren’t given a gift! You were given a life!"
so sad but so too often true i got Shady for Christmas, but when Tilly had her pups i kept hold of them until after new year. | |

| That is so sad but very true Marley was my Christmas present from Ed in 2007 but it wasnt gone into lightly we knew a pup would change our life and lifestyle as we wouldnt have just ourselves to think about for the next 10 - 12 years | |
