Jet, my foster mom, says, “Declare what you desire.” Her view is that you don’t get what you don’t ask for so make sure you state your wishes. I decided Christmas was the perfect time to test her theory so I wrote my version of the Twelve Days of Christmas to communicate all I want.
Start the TUNE and sing along…
On the first day of Christmas, my master gave to me: a fluffy king-sized bed.
On the second day of Christmas, my master gave to me: my own entourage
On the third day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 3 fire hydrants
On the fourth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 4 rescued buddies…
On the fifth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 5 good nights sleep
On the sixth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 6 chewy biscuits
On the seventh day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 7 out-of-jail cards
On the eighth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 8 sweaters modeling
On the ninth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 9 dog pals parading
On the tenth day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 10 toys for playing
On the eleventh day of Christmas, my master gave to me: 11 milk bones for burying
On the twelve day of Christmas, my master gave to me: ornaments hanging
So, here’s my lesson of the day… If your master isn’t quite sure what to give you on Christmas, simply sing the "Twelve Dog Days of Christmas" to them with your own ideas. One extra thing, don’t forget the real meaning of Christmas is the ultimate gift God gave to humans – Jesus – and the ultimate gift God gave to dogs – humans.
Okay, the question of the day is from Krump who asked: Dear Parker, my name is Krump and I’m in a funk. I heard Jet, your foster mom, tried to rescue an abandoned dog trapped in the middle of a highway and a trucker clipped him and no one stopped to help her get him off the road. What happened to the kind spirit of Christmas?
Dear Krump:
I've got the rest of the story and it's good news. Just as Jet was about to get to the dog, a car clipped against his hip and he freaked out and fell to the ground. No one stopped to help but Jet dragged him off the road and eventually the Christmas spirit came alive in the hearts of a lady named Temple Morrow and two kind men who came to help. They got the traffic away from Jet and the dog and Temple took the dog home for healing and to give him a new home. I'll provide a photo for our readers soon but be at peace this Christmas story had a happy ending.
