Old tune has new lyrics


Please click on all the boxes that open up once you play this to see many more adorable puppies and baby animals.
Sunday morning I changed my long time dislike for the actor, pundit, commentator, Ben Stein when he urged folks on the CBS Morning Show who still have some money "to please support animal shelters as they are collapsing due to lack of funds." It was very poignant. I agonize over strays.
My good friend Buzz Miller at Buzzy's BowWowMeow sent this to me via email. The actual recording is at the Humane Society's site. Click title above to go there to hear Patti Page sing it.

Do you see that doggie in the shelter
the one with the take me home eyes
If you give him your love and attention
he will be your best friend for life

In each town and city across the nation,
there's so many dogs with no home
Hungry with no one to protect them
lost is this world all alone
Chorus
Collies and beagles by the roadside
puppies and dogs in the street
Once they are rescued by a shelter
they'll finally get something to eat

Doggies and kitties who are homeless
with sad eyes and tails hanging down
Let's do what we can to show them kindness
and let them know that they've been found
Repeat Chorus
