Noahs arc rescue, God saved my life with the help of a dog!

Mainly audio (spoken word with a few clips of a dog)
This was broadcast on local Costa Calida radio here in Spain 14th of November 2007, as a world exclusive. After numerous requests for a copy, I decided to put it here on youtube.
This was a poem recited originally by my father 40 years ago at almost every gathering and event. The audience would be spellbound and emotional, so after seeing this effect I decided to learn this for myself.
40 years later this is the result with a little music thrown in, and the shots of the now famous life saving dog!
It's a story about fate and destiny. It's the way that simple events can change your life forever. This is how a dog saved a life!

Wow! touched me on so many levels. Personally as a dog trainer I see spiritual parallels between my dogs and me and my relationship to God. The Last Samurai soundtrack reminded me how beauty shines through on a backdrop of injustice, while the narrative is reminiscent of that part at the end of the Moody Blues "Nights in White Satin". I could identify with the struggle of loneliness even in the midst of a crowd. Thanks for striking so many chords ,nostalgic and overtly real.

Many thanks for this thoughtfull and comprehensive comment. It really moved me when I heard the poem years ago, and it still moves me now. I am so pleased that you enjoyed it too. Please tell all your friends!

Happy christmas to you

Four days ago, I lost my oldest mini-Dachshund, Vlad - age 15 1/2. How I miss his sweet, loyal face! Your video comforted me with the words "Here lies my friend." Vlad is at peace now, and I know he would want this video shared with others. Thank you!

Oh, how sad to get your comment about Vlad. No words can ever help in these times of grief and heartbreak, but time will dull the pain.

I can only send you and your family love and best wishes. Our thoughts from everyone here in Spain working within Noahs arc are with you

Difficult to write now, with tears streaming down my face! I subscribed to your channel a few days ago and am just now watching your other videos... Thank you for all the work that you do, you restore my faith in humanity! Your dad's story is heartbreaking, thank you for sharing it... I see that a warm heart runs in your family... Thank you so much!

I am so moved by all the lovely comments I have received recently about this video.

It is comforting to know that there are wonderful people out there, who feel as we do in our charity, that whatever we can do to help these poor noble creatures get loving homes is worth every second of out determination and time invested.

Thank you

This was a very unique and heart touching story. I haven't been there but these words are so well spoken that I can relate to the point I feel like I am there with him. I have had many dogs over the years and been through so many differant types of drama trauma and unfortunate circumstances but one way or another any one of my many dogs has saved my life and my sanity and pulled me through and I just wish everyone could see what I see and feel what I feel about animals, dogs in particular
