Poem
Toro was waiting anxiously at the local
dog shelter, with sad lonely eyes. He paced
back and forth, as the days passed him by.

   If I wasn't a little Chihuahua, maybe they
would choose me then. I rather be a strong
German Shepherd, because they always get
picked, and my loneliness, would end.

   Oh, oh some people are looking to adopt! 
They are walking by my cage, oh no please,
notice me, please stop!

   They walked by Toros cage, as he wept and
let out a mournful sigh. His little heart was
broken, as he was not chosen, way deep,
deep, deep inside.

   He would start to tremble, from all the
rejection he felt, when he was looked upon.
 No one wanted a puppy trembling, thinking he
had something wrong.

   The expression, "Every dog has his day."
came into play, on this special day. My wife
Judy and I saw him shaking in his cage.

   My wife said. "What's the matter honey are
you feeling cold?" She raised him up and held
him, what a happy boy!

   Toro's eyes lit up like the brightest sun. His
tail was wagging, as his heartfelt pain, was
healed and gone.

   My wife said, "Michael this one, I have to
have."  "A wonderful choice honey." I said.

   He wouldn't sit still, as he was full of
excitement, as we were taking  him home. His
little heart was pounding so fast as his
anticipation had grown.

   He ran out of the car like he had been here
before, and waited for us, to open the front door.

   Once inside he met Saranac our cat, and
ran over to meet Lily May our terrier, my wife's
favorite brat. 

   He spends his time given us his loving doggy
licks and impresses us daily with his fancy doggy
tricks.

   My Toro now runs around like he owns the
place. Every once in a while, he gives the
paperboy, a couple of barks and a little chase.

   He follows me now wherever I go, and bites
at the flies, that fly around his nose.

   Toro brings us so much joy, each and everyday.
" This is your special home, my little friend, where,
you will always stay."
