I came across this website that is dedicated to animal rescues.... and I came across and cried over these quotes...

"For every animal that dies in a shelter there is someone, somewhere, responsible for its death. You cannot do a kindness too soon, because you never know how soon it will be too late." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

"He is your friend, your partner, your defender, your dog. You are his life, his love, his leader. He will be yours, faithful and true, to the last beat of his heart. You owe it to him to be worthy of such devotion." - Unknown

"God made the earth, the sky and the water, the moon and the sun. He made man and bird and beast. But He didn't make the dog. He already had one." - Native American saying

"Acquiring a dog may be the only opportunity a human ever has to choose a relative." - Mordecai Siegal

"My little dog - a heartbeat at my feet." - Edith Wharton

"All of the animals except for man know that the principle business of life is to enjoy it." - Samuel Butler

"The reason a dog has so many friends is that he wags his tail instead of his tongue." - Unknown

"The love of all living creatures is the most noble attribute of man." - Charles Darwin

"The great pleasure of a dog is that you may make a fool of yourself with him and not only will he not scold you, but he will make a fool of himself too." - Samuel Butler

"WE CAN JUDGE THE HEART OF A MAN BY HIS TREATMENT OF ANIMALS." - IMMANUEL KANT

"If you have men who will exclude any of God's creatures from the shelter of compassion and pity, you will have men who will deal likewise with their fellow men." - St. Francis of Assisi
