Rescue Dog
Rescue Dog
You might be rich
Designers house
Designer car and clothes
Even a designer kid
So, of course you have a designer dog
Bred in a puppy mill
Kept in cages and sold for too much money
But there are so many others
Given up on before they had a chance
Still they have love and hope in their eyes
They have love to give but no way to share it
Instead they are locked in a glass cage
Maybe they have a friend with them but usually not
Still they wag their tails and smile as best they can
They have hope that someone will give them a home
While waiting for someone to come and take them away
Into a cold room away from everyone
With a needle in a vein they fall asleep
And never again wake up
If only one person bought a rescue
Instead of a designer dog
A life could be saved
And loved could be shared once again
