Dogs Prayer and Silent Cries

I just wanted to reblog a post/site by a group who trying to help stray dogs

And once again post a dog’s prayer

Before humans die, they write their last Will & Testament, give their home & all they have, to those they leave behind. If, with my paws, I could do the same, this is what I’d ask…

To a poor and lonely stray, I’d give:

  • My happy home.
  • My bowl & cozy bed, soft pillows and all my toys.
  • The lap, which I loved so much.
  • The hand that stroked my fur & the sweet voice which 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 dog, 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

My name is Thomas Wikman. I am a software/robotics engineer with a background in physics. I am currently retired. I took early retirement. I am a dog lover, and especially a Leonberger lover, a home brewer, craft beer enthusiast, I’m learning French, and I am an avid reader. I live in Dallas, Texas, but I am originally from Sweden. I am married to Claudia, and we have three children. I have two blogs. The first feature the crazy adventures of our Leonberger Le Bronco von der Löwenhöhle as well as information on Leonbergers. The second blog, superfactful, feature information and facts I think are very interesting. With this blog I would like to create a list of facts that are accepted as true among the experts of the field and yet disputed amongst the public or highly surprising. These facts are special and in lieu of a better word I call them super-facts.

  1. I didn’t grow up with a dog. My parents were cat people until I brought a dog home with me, then they always wanted one. I can’t imagine life without a pup now. They have such distinct personalities – each one I’ve had. One friend in Japan lost her beloved pup last year and won’t get a new one because she feels she’s “too old” and the dog might outlive her. She’s no older than I am! I wish I could talk her into it, but I have to respect her decision.

    1. Yes the same here. Well we did not have any pets when I grew up. As an adult I have learned to enjoy dogs very much. Dogs are wonderful people and like you say they all have their own personalities and are very different from each other. I think you can have a small dog when you are older, unless you really think that they will outlive you. She seems to think she won’t live that long. Big dogs may be harder to handle when you are out of shape.

  2. Very touching, Thomas! And, yes, it is so important to share and raise awareness of this situation. Thank you for being a voice for the voiceless. Light and blessings to you and all the strays that I wish could no longer be so… ✨🙏🐕🐈

  3. How moving. We had cattle dogs growing up on the farm but they were working dogs and not pets. Once we rescued one we were so in love,, we rescued another. They are the best companions ever and so grateful to have a nice warm safe home to live in. I love the dogs prayer. Thank you.
