Forgotten friend is a video about the shelter situation in the U.S. The statistics are in the movie. As most of you know, Nessy was adopted out of a local shelter by us on September 1st, 2008. Although she is 11 years old, she brings so much love and joy to our home. I can't imagine someone taking her and just dropping her off at a shelter, knowing she would probably be put down. Not because of her age, but because the shelters are always overcrowded.
It's a sad thing for this to happen and anyone who thinks these dogs have no clue what is going on, I recommend you visit a shelter.
The song "Forgotten Friend" was graciously sent to me by Maria Daines. It was written for a shelter in Long Island. She gave me permission to use it and I can't say thankyou enough to her and Paul Killington. The work they do for the animals is phenomenol. So my sincere gratitude goes out to both of these wonderful friends of mine.
I hope this video brings awareness to any who don't know the statistics. I hope it changes your view on things like this. Although shelters are a great thing, they shouldn't be overcrowded like they are. When we get a pet, it should be for life, not a convenience.
Thankyou to all who watch.
