A dog’s last will and testament

Before humans die, they write their last will and testament,

Give their home and all they have to those they leave behind.

If, with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I’ ask …

To a poor and lovely stray I’d give my happy home:

my bowl and cozy bed, soft pillow and all my toys;

the lap, which I loved so much;

the hand that stroked my for;

and the sweet voice that spoke my name.

I’d will to the sad, scared shelter dog the place I had in my

Human’s loving heart, of which there seemed no bounds.

So, when I die, please do not say: “I will never have a pet again,

for the loss and pain is more than I can stand.”

Instead, go find an unloved do, one whose life has held no

joy or hope, and give my place to him.

This is the only thing I can give …

The love I left behind.
