| "I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society. I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal. And I was angry." "God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?" God was silent for a moment, and then He spoke softly. I have done "something, He replied. I created you".

| Prayer for Animals "Hear our humble prayer, O God, for our friends the animals, especially for animals who are suffering; for animals that are overworked, underfed and cruelly treated; for all wistful creatures in captivity that beat their wings against bars; for any that are hunted or lost or deserted or frightened or hungry; for all that must be put to death. We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity, and for those who deal with them we ask a heart of compassion and gentle hands and kindly words. Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals, and so to share the blessings of the merciful." - Albert Schweitzer |
| "We call them dumb animals, and so they are, for they cannot tell us how they feel, but they do not suffer less because they have no words". unknown |
| "We can judge the heart of a Man by his Treatment of Animals." ~ Immanuel Kant |
| "The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated" "I hold that the more helpless a creature, the more entitled it is to protection by man from the cruelty of man" ~~M. Gandhi (1869-1948) |
| "We find beauty in the most incomprehensible places and otherwise homely faces. It is our gift to see beyond the dirt, terror, sadness, and defeat to find the true soul that lies within." We are Rescue. |
| "The poor dog, in life the firmest friend, The first to welcome, foremost to defend, Whose honest heart is still the master's own, Who labours, fights, lives, breathes for him alone, Unhonour'd falls, unnoticed all his worth, Denied in heaven the soul he held on earth, While man, vain insect, hopes to be forgiven, And claims himself a sole exclusive heaven." Lord Byron Inscription on the monument of his Newfoundland dog, Boatswain, 1808 |
| I was an owner surrender! I was euthanized because I ran out of time. Owner surrenders can be euthanized ANYTIME! |
| "Would you like to be treated the same way you treat your dog if your positions were reversed?"~ John Witt |
| The Wythe Co Animal Shelter only sends a few pictures at a time so I may not receive pictures of those that may be euthanized. Just because no pictures are listed here doesn't mean that dogs are not being euthanized. You can email the County Adminstrator and request this information. C. Dalton @ rcdalton@wytheco.org |
