"Guardians
Of The Night"
Trust
in me my friend for I am your comrade. I will protect you with my last
breath when all others have left you and the loneliness of the night
closes in, I will be at your side.
Together we will conquer all obstacles, and search out those who might
wish harm to others. All I ask of you is compassion, the caring touch of
your hands. It is for you that I will unselfishly give my life and spend
my nights unrested. Although our days together may be marked by the
passing of the seasons know that each day at your side is my reward.
My days are measured by the coming and going of your footsteps. I
anticipate them at every opening of the door. You are the voice of caring
when I am ill. The voice of authority when I've done wrong.
Do not chastise me unduly for I am your right arm, the sword at your side.
I attempt to do only what you bid of me. I seek only to please you and
remain in your favor.
Together you and I shall experience a bond only others like us will
understand, when outsiders see us together their envy will be measured by
their disdain.
I will quietly listen to you and pass no judgment, nor will your spoken
words be repeated I will remain ever silent, ever vigilant, ever loyal.
And when our time together is done and you move on in the world remember me with kind thoughts and tales, for a time we were unbeatable, nothing
passed among us undetected.
If we should meet again on another street I will gladly take up your
fight, I am a Police Working Dog and together we are Guardians of the Night.
