Before humans die they write their Last Will and Testament,
give their homes and 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 and cozy bed, soft pillows, and all my toys.
The lap which I loved so much, the tender, loving, touch.
The hand that stroked my fur and sweet voice which called my name.
I'd Will to the sad scared Shelter Dog the place I had in my human's 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 that I can give...
The Love I left behind.
This is my inheritance!
My Will and my Last Testament.
