so he usually researches things or watches funny videos. He likes to learn..actually he
thrives on it.
Sam studied Japan this year at school. He loved it and learned so much.
This morning he was very sad on the brink of tears. He was watching a video of a dog
who refused to leave another dog that had broken his leg. These two dogs were just
friends.
This got to me being a huge animal lover. It is so horrendous what these people
are going through.. it has even affected their beloved pets. When disasters happen
we don't always realise it is not only the people who suffer but their beloved pets.
We can all relate to the pain
and horror we would feel seeing our pets hurt...
Please not only keep the people of Japan in your prayers but pray for theirbeloved pets as well. And if you can make a donation please do..
I am sure the people of Japan will thank you for it.

I saw that same clip on our news last night... something about helpless animals is so hard to watch. Thanks for the info about "paws for japan"... I'm headed there right now.

Please also see my most recent post with a link to Paypal for an organization called ARK, which helps animals in Japan.
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with the people and animals of Japan.
Thanks for posting this. They NEED our help.
Ah yes we easily can forget the pets. This is so devastating, it is getting hard to watch, as the days go on.
ReplyDeleteI called you the other day, but you were off to the pool with Sam. Give me a call.
I read (on Facebook, how reliable is that!!) that those 2 dogs were saved...one went to a shelter (that is probably bulging at the seams) and the other dog was taken to a vet..by the camera crew that filmed it. Hope it's true...they really need our help now.
ReplyDeleteI feel so bad for all of those feeling the devistation in Japan...even the pets...So Sad!
ReplyDeleteThat brings me to tears to even think about it...so terribly sad. Hugs- Diana
ReplyDeleteThanks for posting this. It all helps. There is just too much sadness to take it all in but we do what we can. Have a great day. Deb=^..^=x5

I had to stop watching the Japan Clips because I felt guilty about being home in my bed relaxing while the people of Japan were suffering. Those people as well as animals are in my prayers.
ReplyDeletethis is so very true Pamela ~ and our sadness of the confusion for the animal in not knowing what's unsettled their lives or their missing owners.. so plsd your son is aware at his young age and so caring - lessons learned..
ReplyDeletethx for posting!
I saw that on the news last night as well, I couldn't even watch it really, as I get so choked up about animal stories. I was so glad to hear that the two dogs were rescued. I am a huge animal lover, too, and will be sure to keep all of those sweet animals in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteSo sad, so much in our lives affect our pets lives, too. There must be so many suffering in Japan right now.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy
I find it so incredibly sad to think of all those sweet pets suffering and not able to get the help they need. We treated a few pets after hurricane Katrina, and they were not only physically suffering, but also emotionally affected by the trauma. We can't forget them and how important they are to us all!
ReplyDeleteOh Pamela! This is such a great cause! I saw that about the dog on TV that was sitting beside and watching over another hurt/injured dog. I was in tears! Of course my heart goes out to the people of Japan, and I wish I had all the money in the world to help them. The injured and hurting pets just tears at my heartstrings and I want to help! Thank you for sharing this!
ReplyDeleteIt's hearbreaking, Pamela. Thanks for opening up your heart today. *Lynne* {with love}
ReplyDeleteThis is so sad as is the entire situation in Japan. Thanks for sharing this link.
ReplyDeleteIts all very depressing, they need our support and prayers for starting a complete new life...May God gives them courage and stregth for this challange.... this is life... full of un known incidents

Oh sweet kitty! It makes me so sad ~ so much devastation in Japan. It breaks the heart.
ReplyDeleteSending thoughts of peace.

I saw that very same video and it touched my heart too. Those folks are so amazing - they are truly going through so much and it will take a while to recover. It is a good thing to raise a child to have a tender heart for others! You never know how an event or circumstance will influence our children's hearts to become something or do something important.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a blessed weekend,
Kathy
you're right Pam. These horrific events touch everyone and every thing.
ReplyDeleteBless youn for this touching post. Our hearts break for the people of Japan as well as their dear furry "children".

Oh Pamela, I'm such a huge animal lover.... I saw that clip on the internent and couldn't even open it up it would just make me to sad... so glad that you posted about the animals there in Japan too!
ReplyDeleteBig hugs~~~ Daphne
What a great post. I always think of the animals in this situation. What has happened in Japan is so awful. I can't imagine having to search for my family through the rubble. Hopefully they can rebuild and won't suffer anything else like this. Rachaelxx
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, I'm definitely in. I heard about the two dogs, what a story.
ReplyDeleteI will definitely make a donation.
