Frustrated barking greets you
Have you come to chose me?
Oh how many beautiful animals need a home so desperately.
Cats, purebred dogs and mongrels
Fill compounds as far as the eye can see.
They will never find love in Spain,
It is up to you and me.
Some have been there several years,
Some give up, lie quietly
Others jump up, frantically.
Some are ill,
Money is scarce
The vet will see who needs him most.
Three hundred dogs to treat and feed,
Eight hundred cats, can you believe?
With trusting eyes just waiting for
A life with some normality.
A caring owner, proper food,
Two walks a day, that would be good.
They don't ask much, they don't expect,
They've never known man's respect.
Some we can save and some we must leave
And be thankful that through people like you
We have given a new life to more than a few
Dogs and cats, all now happy and free
From their anguished lives of misery.
