Is there anyone out there who can help me?
You see I am living my life tied to a tree.
I’d like to have a family, someone who would love me.
Instead, I am tied to this tree.
I would love to be free…but I am tied to this tree.
I am not happy—can’t you see?
I would love to have someone who cared about me.
Instead, I am tied to this tree.
I am here 24/7 with no one who cares about me.
I have water that is true, you can see the yellow bucket that’s your clue.
But what is water? What is food? When life is lived at the end of a chain tied to a tree?
I am a Great Pyrenees, a proud breed, a working type but this is what has been given to me: living my life at the end of a chain tied to a tree.
I know that there are no laws to protect me. I guess people can do what they want to me. As long as I have water you see, they say it’s okay to keep a dog chained to a tree.
As long as I have water you see, it’s okay to neglect a dog chained to a tree.
As long as I have water you see, it’s okay that a dog dies chained to a tree.
I am a Great Pyrenees and I live a short life, and mine is being spent at the end of a chain tied to a tree.
Why did this happen to me?
I don’t know, I must have done something wrong.
But I sure wish I could be free, to have someone just care about me, I only ask that just one time I could be free from this tree.
Would you please come by and take a look at me? Help spread the word? Perhaps someone will do something for me? Perhaps someone will rescue me? I sure don’t want to die at the end of this chain tied to a tree.
6-12-09…Just now read about this beautiful,chained for life, GrtPyr. of your heart. I live in Asheville,NC. and hope to leave ASAP to move North. In NC, same’ol way of thinking, good ol’boys network, abuse, bigotry, etc… especially right outside of city area. As a European, I feel tramatized by some of the things I have seen, and I have an incredibly hard time with the mentality here, even often of the “educated”. In 2005, (I had just arrived, with no clue about anything), I met a retired cop working as a guard at the WNC University, who chained his GrtPyr, (”Champion”), behind his house.I offered $500, but my offer was denied. I am writing to you today, to offer my loving support for your wonderful cause;its so hard, and SO heart breaking, to fight seemingly endless ignorance, self rightiousness, inability to feel empathy, bigotry, lies and at times all pervasive abusive behavior. Please, if you get this and have just one minute, let me know what happened to “your” chained-for-ever soulful GrtPyr in your article.Were you able to help him after all? God bless you. PS:
You ask for assistance in your cause? How can others assist you? I have a GrtPyr and a mixed Husky;They are my spcial loves, and they are my Soul Mates. God bless you.
