WILL WE LEAVE A FOOTPRINT No great achievements may be ours Nor special honours won Yet, we would LIKE to leave our pawprints Whene'er our time is done How shall we then, achieve this goal If we do not win fame? Will the tides of time erase The very mem'ry of our names? We'd like to think our lives worthwhile Not just to us, you see, But to the masters we have served And to our whole communities How, then shall we leave our marks Upon Life's shifting sands? By giving more expecting less And making few demands What can we contribute To make our pawprints firm? All the love we have to offer The will to live and learn And then we think we'll e content When our time has come to est If folk will just remember That we ALWAYS did our best ~~~~~by Milita Houlahan (sent to me from K9 handler in Australia)

Poem entered by Glassboro PD, NJ
My eyes are your eyes,
to watch and protect yours
My ears are your ears.
To hear and detect evil minds in the dark.
My nose is your nose,
To scent the invades of your domain
And... so you may live,
my life is also yours.
