Tappers2oz Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 (edited) Just found this on fb. Get the tissues ready. [emoji24][emoji24][emoji24][emoji24] "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.

Guest51810 Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 It's just so sad. I wish I hadn't read the poem and then they've started posting pictures of some of the dogs. There's one gorgeous staffy that reminds me Eric. Got upset looking at them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tappers2oz Posted September 13, 2014 Author Share Posted September 13, 2014 I read that a lot who died were getting ready to go to new homes. [emoji22] Even more awful. About to escape kennel life to enjoy freedom with a loving family. Now they will never get that chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bound4Tassie Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 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.
