Yesterday afternoon I was going home on Rex Lake Rd in Leeds and there was a beautiful golden retriever possibly mixed with Irish setter in the middle of the road. It was obvious from the dog's behavior some one had put it out and it was waiting for them to come back. I pulled over at Bailey rd and called it to my car to keep it from getting hit. The nagging feeling that maybe it belonged to someone close and the fact that I have 4 dogs caused me to leave it and go on home. Wishing all the way I had taken it. This morning I took dog food with me to feed it if it was still there. It was still there. But, DEAD. Some one hit it and it was laying on the side of the road. I am mad. That is like taking a child and leaving it. You could tell the dog was waiting for whomever had left it. WHY? Why did it have to be left to die like that? I hope that the person responsible cant stand it until they have to go back and at least bury it. It deserves more than just to lay on the side of the road abandoned.

People think that just because its an animal it doesnt have feelings nor have the need to want to stay with their family. All animals need love and want to feel apart of a good home. Thats sad that happened to the dog.I know you wish you wouldve took him home with you. Hopefully the owner will go back and bury the dog if he/she wasnt the one to kill it.

heartscards61, what a very sad event. A similar thing happened to my husband. I can't understand why people don't accept animals as living, breathing creatures with feelings. I wonder how they would feel if someone dropped them off on the side of the road and drove off. Dogs are such loving beings. They love unselfishly. If more humans could do that the world would be a better place to live.
I'm also saddened that your thoughtful message attracted two people that find it necessary to criticize. I'm not sure who they are talking about (their message is unclear) but their comments don't belong here.
Anyway, may your kindness stay with you and perhaps touch another person's life. Happy New Year and God Bless You.

thank you so much for your comments and especially about the ones that dont belong. I was so excited to have the blog site at the beginning until it was used to create personal attacks. That is not right. There is a place and purpose to express a reply to what the blog is about and I dont like mine being used for personal attacks not even related to the subject. Just before Christmas I found out I have breast cancer and 2007 is laid out for me in saving my life. There is no place even for negative remarks in me to get through this year. People realize that there is enough room to speak positive things for right now that is what the whole world needs. God bless us all in 2007.

Happy New Year heartcards61!!!!!I've read your post and I pray that everything goes well for you in 2007.There are people on this site that speak out of place and it's my reflex to defend good people.What I realize now is I become like the insulters.My heart felt heavy when I read about the dog,and when that ignorant statement was made,I lost it.For my actions I apologize.No insult or insensitive act was intended.May God cover you and your family in your time of need.

Please excuse me heartcard61, if I insulted any one here. Dogs are my favorite pets, I don't have one now, but is thinking about adopting another one. We only have a single fish, he gets excited in the morning when he sees me and when I return from work. I always stop to talk to him.

I just got home from my second surgery concerning this breast cancer that I found out about for Christmas. lymph nodes are fine. waiting of biopsy report on cells. Got a port in to take chemo through. Rough on this 61 year old. But, God is so awesome and I know He is with me and am not worried. Found out I have the gene that causes cancer and you can only find it in the cancer so we can get to work and get rid of the gene. It will take a year of intravenous injections to do it but I will at least be rid of it. Take care of your pets so I wont have to get up set about them till I am better. Thanks again for thoughts and prayers. heartcards61

I have already seen some miracles through this time of my life and I am so grateful to God that my lymph nodes are clear. Got 4 cuts to heal so I can take chemo to finish the process. But, the time I am off from work right now I can spend with God and getting to know Him much better. He has filled me with such joy that I cant explain it. I know without a shadow of a doubt that He will bring this to His completion to show His strength to me. Thanks for the prayers, for I find great strength in them. God Bless You.

What a Son

I am so glad my Heavenly Father
Introduced me to His Son
He assured me in getting to know HIm
I sould find that He is the One
The one that I can depend on
The One whose love is true
The One that will be with me
No matter what I walk through
He said His faithfulness would amaze me
He would never leave my side
He would be a place of safety
Where I can always run and hide
He said He would protect me
Angels would always hover near
He said to remember to always stand strong
I don't have to live in fear
He said "things are not always what they seem"
That is why it is such a "must"
To het Him have His way in my life
It's all a matter of trust
He reached out His hand to me
Asking me to believe what He said
He burned it right into my heart
As I felt the scar where He had bled
The look in His eyes was so intense
Love was all that I could see
He said "All I ask in return"
"You simply turst in ME"

The older I get the more vocal I get about news items. It amazes me that people can do some of the things that make news headlines. I wish that we could get over "political correctness" and maybe help stop some of this before it happens. You can't condone everything that happens or try to reason it finding something to blame it on. Some things need to be black and white and no gray. It would be no problem for me to see some folk pay for their crimes without making the rest of us feel guilty that they did. Just putting my two cents worth in.
