Happy Valentine’s Day from all the Rescue Remedies Dogs!

Happy Valentine’s Day from all the Rescue Remedies Dogs!

Promises

I'm sitting here in my kennel run, crossing the days off with one of my paws
I can't count the times I've paced the length, but my feet are covered in sores
I was told this was a new beginning, my rescuers solemn promise
But as the days draw on and lengthen, I'm becoming a doubting Thomas!

I'm trying to look on the bright side, I've energy a plenty to enthuse
I get a run with a ball in the paddock, sometimes a walk and some chews
I was told I'd be exchanging my freedom, and giving up the right to roam
It would be for something special, whispers heard about a loving home!

I'm trying to stay optimistic, the promised life has to be better than this
I love to be groomed and played with, but I'd like a regular cuddle & a kiss
I was told that my dreams could be realised, a forever home could be mine
So I'm basking in a rare ray of sunshine, just waiting for my lucky Valentine!
