Adoption Application

Did you know???  Dogs are mentioned 14 times in the Bible

"A good dog deserves a good bone." -Ben Jonson

If there are no dogs in Heaven, then when I die I want to go where they went."
 - Will Rogers
In Defense of Dog Breeders

IF I DIDN’T HAVE DOGS…

-I could walk around the yard barefoot in safety.
-My house could be carpeted instead of tiled and laminated.
-All flat surfaces, clothing, furniture, and cars would be free of hair.
-When the doorbell rings, it wouldn't sound like a kennel.
-I could sit on the couch and my bed the way I wanted, without taking into
consideration how much space several fur bodies would need to get comfortable.
-I would not have strange presents under my Christmas tree - dog bones,
stuffed animals, toys, and treats nor would I have to explain to people
why I wrap them.
-I would have money and no guilt to go on a real vacation.
-I would not be on a first-name basis with 4 veterinarians, as I put their yet
unborn grand kids through college.
-The most used words in my vocabulary would not be: out, sit, down, come, no, stay,
and leave him/her/it ALONE.
-My house would not be cordoned off into zones with baby gates or barriers.
-My house would not look like a day care center, toys everywhere.
-My pockets would not contain things like poop bags, treats and an extra leash..
-I would no longer have to Spell the words B-A-L-L-, F-R-I-S-B-E- E, W-A-L-K,
T-R-E-A-T or R-I-D-E.
-I would not have as many leaves INSIDE my house as outside.
-I would not look strangely at people who think having ONE dog/cat ties them down too much.
-I'd look forward to spring and the rainy season instead of dreading "muddy" season.
-I would not have to answer the question "Why do you have so many animals?" from people
who do not have the joy in their lives of knowing they are loved unconditionally by
someone as close to an angel as they will ever get.
If I didn't have dogs ................... How empty my life would be.

Something to think about....

If you can start the day without caffeine or pep pills,
 
If you can be cheerful, ignoring aches and pains,
 If you can resist complaining and boring people with your troubles,
 If you can eat the same food everyday and be grateful for it,
 If you can understand when loved ones are too busy to give you time,
 If you can overlook when people take things out on you when, through no fault of yours, something goes wrong,
 If you can take criticism and blame without resentment,
 If you can face the world without lies and deceit,
 If you can conquer tension without medical help,
 If you can relax without liquor,
 If you can sleep without the aid of drugs,
If you can do all these things,

 
Then you are probably the family dog.

High Lonesome
by Charlie Daniels Band

Just you and me and a little white pup
Sittin' here waiting for the sun to come up
To keep the chill away
Drinkin' our coffee at the first crack of dawn
Watchin' a doe while she nuzzles her fawn
It's my favorite time of the day

CHORUS:
High lonesome
God don't ever let this mountain change
High lonesome
I hope you will always stay the same

Sometimes in the evening when it's all kinda still
Sweet mountain music floats over the hill
On a laurel-scented breeze
Sometimes when the nightbirds are scolding the mist
I think I might know where heaven is
It's just above the trees

CHORUS

Watchin' my summer times turnin' to falls
Seein' my son growing honest and tall
Keeps me satisfied
If I live forever or I die today
All I would ask is you just let me lay here
 on this mountainside

CHORUS

America's Animal Shelters: Know where your money goes!

  First they Came for the Cows: In 2006 a USDA mandate called National Animal Identification System (NAIS) came to the attention of a middle-aged homesteader in NW Vermont and she finds herself thrown into the role of a reluctant activist. First They Came for the Cows is a fictionalized account of her experience.

Do you know the difference between Animal Rights and Animal Welfare??  Know the difference!!!
A direct quote from PETA:
" The cat, like the dog, must disappear... We should cut the domestic animals free from our dominance by neutering, neutering and more neutering, until our pathetic version of the domestic pet ceases to exist."--John Bryant, (PeTA,)
Guide to America's Shelters: Humane Society, ASPCA, and more...
PETA euthanized nearly 2,000 animals in 2005, the last year figures were available from the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services!!

PLEASE HELP PROTECT THE RIGHTS OF WV ANIMAL OWNERS   It is our duty as citizens (local, WV and U.S.) to know the laws. It's time to spread the word to the WV animal owning population that there are people out there trying to create laws that have the potential to affect every aspect of all animal ownership. Please join our group, and help preserve your right to keep animals!

For those in the West: Responsible Dog Owners of the West Responsible Dog Owners of the Western States was founded October 15, 1989. It is a not for profit group. Our supporters include pure-bred, rare breed, mixed breed owners, breeders, trainers, exhibitors, breed clubs, obedience clubs, and even people who don't own dogs, but are sympathetic to the right to keep and own dogs responsibly
