Bureaucracy and red tape is in all walks of our life,
But when too much is too much, it becomes a weary strife.

Of all people in this world, the shelter should have known,
That no doggy could ever wish for a better loving home.

So glad the waiting is over, and tomorrow is the day,
Where your new little companion will dwell, love and play.

Wishing you laughter and the warmth a pet can bring,
Wishing you happiness, and merry woof-woof songs to sing.
