End of Page Tidbits... Titan is "caught" planting a wonderful kiss right on Dianne's face. And look how he presents her with his paw. Titan was an absolute jewel and we miss him so much!!!!!! Atti squares off with a playful cattle dog on the pretzel tug game. The cattle dog won :) There is nothing like the affection of a mastiff for his child.... ...or for that matter any dog's love for his child!

I Want To Talk, by Cindy Wieland, written on December 22nd 2009 I want to talk To the man who ties his dog outside, dog-lovers he will mock I'd love to talk To the puppy & kitty-miller who is ever conscience of the buck Say, I am mad At the one who says until disproven, every dog is bad I'd like to cry To the woman who says the shock-collar's going to be given a try There is no place for common sense when it comes to a pet I guess We struggle with our own issues; our pets have to endure the ruse When someone who is genuine in compassion toward earth's animals Take time to praise them as the selfless person that they are I wanna shout To the overspending person who says keeping Fido's out Can I just say Hey, walk your dog twice 'round the block on this nice day I had a thought The overpopulation of companion animals we can solve Oh it pains me To think of all the rejected pets of human society There is no place for common sense when it comes to a pet I guess We struggle with our own issues; our pets have to endure the ruse If you're inclined to work on this to see plus sign results I tip my hat with good respect for your efforts with no fault Let's get it right The time is now that we can see and understand How to achieve The simple virtue of endearing our pets while they live Their entire lives Which we made sure were lived with grace and quality I do say now Let's be a nation proud to say we care for our companion animals © Cindy Wieland 2009, Founder of Canisolida Mastiffs Foster and Retirement Home, Inc.
