"Gods Kennel Maid

There was a special kennel maid

Who visited us that night,

With hair like golden sunshine

And wings of brilliant white.

 

At first we did not see her

Through the smoke so black,

But we knew that we must follow her

Our little faithful pack.

 

The big dogs, the little dogs

Some with muzzles grey,

Woke from sleepy slumber

They seem to know the way.

 

She led us past the kennels

Up to a distant door,

An exit that was new to us

We'd not been that way before.

 

Although we were so frightened

We formed an orderly queue,

And from a golden re-homing book,

She ticked as we went through.

 

The colour were so beautiful,

On rainbow flower beds,

And then we saw a wooden bridge

As forward we were led.

 

Our sore, burnt paws were healed

Our coats no longer smokey and black

A rainbow appeared upon the bridge

And every wooden slat.

 

Then we finally saw him

The Master of us all,

We a rushed up to meet him

When we heard him call.

 

The small dogs sat upon his knee

The others at his sandalled feet,

Welcoming him like a dear old friend

Now our Journey was complete.

 

He said you are from Manchester

Your tragic story is well known,

I'd like those to know, way down there

In my beautiful kingdom, you're now ....

Re-homed.

5 had only just moved from Liverpool dogs home on Wednesday in the hope they would have more luck with a home - only 1 if them survived the fire. Have heard M6 has been gridlocked by people wanting to drop off donation / food / supplies at Cheshire Dogs Home. They've asked people not to come until next weekend.
