LETTER TO "OWNERS" OF CHAINED DOGS
1/11
dear "owner",
I got this letter written for me. You don't even know the joy I feel for being able to communicate with you. Every day, since that distant day when you put the chain around my neck and locked me in this space,

2/11
I dream that you'll come visit me and pet me like you used to do when I was a puppy.
I dream that you come and talk to me, I don't really understand what you're saying, but you can't imagine how much I love hearing the sound of your voice!
I know I've done something wrong,

3/11
otherwise you certainly wouldn't have put me here. Excuse! I don't want to be picky but it starts to hurt to have this chain around my neck. Sometimes my neck is numb, other times I'm very itchy and I can't even scratch! I feel its weight every day, the weight of the

4/11
loneliness that holds me back.
I want to stretch my legs and run...and how I wish I could do that with you! I would love for you to toss me some balls, then I could show you how fast I am at running and how quickly I brought them. I wish I could see what you see, the world

5/11
outside is too big? And are there others like me?
Sometimes I'm thirsty and a little hungry but I bear it in silence because I know that as soon as you can you'll come give me food and water, I know you do what you can, I don't want to bother you, but you know, sometimes

6/11
I'd like to have some of yours company.
I know that maybe someone told you that I have no feelings, but look what a lie! You can't even imagine how much joy I feel when someone touches me or addresses me. You don't even know how much sadness and loneliness weigh on me

7/11
in the long hours that I don't see anyone. You don't even know the fear I sometimes feel in winter here alone, and I want so much to be close to you.
The other day some strange people came by and started looking inside and pointing at me, laughing and throwing stones at me.

8/11
They wanted to come and hurt you. They hit me with one in the paw and yesterday I couldn't get up, but I soon chased them away with my barking. I don't want anyone to harm you…and I don't want you to get mad at me, I promise to do better for you.
I am your most faithful

9/11
friend, I will never betray you, I do not hold grudges, and I never take anyone's place, do you have more friends like that in your world? I just wanted a little more of your attention and love, a warm bed in winter, a cool place in summer and your smell entering my nostrils

10/11
every day, followed by a smile and a party on my old loin.
I know that one day you will come here and take the chain and give me all this, until then I will be quiet and wait. Just don't take my "owner" too long, because I'm getting old and I'm starting to see and hear

11/11
poorly. I lack strength and I don't want to go without living a little with you.
From your "dog"
If you see a trapped dog, print this letter and place it in the owner's mailbox. On behalf of the "chained dogs", thank you.
