A Shelter Dog's Christmas Poem Tis the night before Christmas and all through the town, every shelter is full - we are lost, but not found... Our numbers are hung on our kennels so bare, we hope every minute that someone will care. They'll come to adopt us and give us the call, "Come here, Riley and Maya - come fetch your new ball!! But now we sit here and think of the days... we were treated so fondly - we had cute, baby ways. Once we were little, then we grew and we grew now we're no longer young and we're no longer new. So out the back door we were thrown like the trash, they reacted so quickly - why were they so rash? We "jump on the children", "don't come when they call", we "bark when they leave us", climb over the wall. We should have been neutered, we should have been spayed, now we suffer the consequence of the errors THEY made. If only they'd trained us, if only we knew... we'd have done what they asked us and worshiped them. too. We were left in the backyard, or worse -let to roam- now we're tired and lonely and out of a home. They dropped us off here and they kissed us good-bye... "Maybe someone else will give you a try." So now here we are, all confused and alone... in a shelter with others who long for a home. The kind workers come through with a meal and a pat, with so many to care for, they can't stay to chat, They move to the next kennel, giving each of us cheer... we know that they wonder how long we'll be here. We lay down to sleep and sweet dreams fill our heads... of a home filled with love and our own cozy beds. Then we wake to see sad eyes, brimming with tears - our friends filled with emptiness, worry, and fear. If you can't adopt us and there's no room at the Inn - could you help with the bills and fill our food bin? We count on your kindness each day of the year - can you give more than hope to everyone here? Please make a donation to pay for the heat... and help get us something special to eat. The shelter that cares for us wants us to live, and more of us will, if more people will give. -- Author Unknown - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/albion/christmas-day-at-the-orleans-county-animal-shelter-2025/200029159202330 - **Event Categories**: christmas, workshops, art, literary-art, nonprofit, dog, holiday - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 199 ## Ticket Details ## Event venue details - **city**: Albion - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: 4125 Oak Orchard Rd, Albion, NY 14411-9427, United States - **lat**: 43.2125 - **long**: -78.1939 - **full address**: 4125 Oak Orchard Rd, Albion, NY 14411-9427, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Christmas Day at the Orleans County Animal Shelter 2025 - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events10/banners/6d45876fe6016f6050c9c517077cb78f63d7517bc5ab3f5fc48ae9487b9529ae-rimg-w1200-h800-dcd8f1f4-gmir?v=1766603768 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Christmas Day at the Orleans County Animal Shelter 2025 being held? - **A:** Christmas Day at the Orleans County Animal Shelter 2025 takes place on Thu, 25 Dec, 2025 at 11:00 am to Thu, 25 Dec, 2025 at 02:00 pm at 4125 Oak Orchard Rd, Albion, NY 14411-9427, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Christmas Day at the Orleans County Animal Shelter 2025? - **A:** Christmas Day at the Orleans County Animal Shelter 2025 is organized by Friends of the Orleans County Animal Shelter, Inc.. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
