if the two of you can come to concensus -- and can provide one -- you will really be doing a sweet soul a good deed.
and as you already know -- that dog will love you both to no end.
ALONE AGAIN
I wish someone could tell me What it is that I've done wrong, Why I have to stay chained up And left alone so long.
They seemed so glad to have me When I came here as a pup. There were so many things we'd do While I was growing up.
They couldn't wait to train me As companion and as friend. They told me they would never fear Being left alone again.
The children said they'd feed me, Said they'd brush me every day, They'd play with me and walk me, If only I could stay.
But now the family hasn't time. They often say I shed. They wont allow me in the house, Not even to be fed.
The children never walk me. They always say, "Not Now!" I wish that I could please them. Won't someone tell me how?
All I have is love, you see, I wish they would explain, Why they said they wanted me Then left me on a chain.

A Dog's Best Friend
O Lord, don't let me once forget How I love my trusty pet- Help me learn to disregard canine craters in my yard Show me how to be a buddy even when my sofa's muddy, Don't allow my pooch to munch postal carriers for lunch, Shield my neighbor's cat from view, guide my steps around the doo, Train me not to curse and scowl, when it's puppy's night to howl, Grant I shan't awake in fear with a cold nose in my ear, Give me patience without end- Help me be; A DOG'S BEST FRIEND.
