For centuries beasts of burden have determined the success or failure of armies both powerful and small , being the only available transportation for both man and supplies; and WHEREAS, recent studies have shown that domestic animals have been used to brighten the lives of senior citizens confined to hospitals and nursing homes . A purring kitten or playful puppy have brought smiles and comfort when words were unable to do so; and WHEREAS, domestic pets such as cats and dogs have been known to save the lives of the families who so lovingly adopted them from a local shelter, or who took them in when they were found wandering. Stories of the loyalty of pet to master have been heralded through the centuries and have filled thousands of volumes . In the area of law enforcement in particular, a K-9 is not just a canine, he is a partner to the officer to whom he is assigned and a member of his or her family. Many of these "partners" have given their lives to save the life of the person along whose side they have walked almost as an equal . With unquestioned loyalty they have willingly paid the ultimate price to protect their partner; and WHEREAS, animals have been eyes , ears, legs and arms for human I beings who have lost or who may never have had, the use of these senses and limbs and have, in many instances , made the difference between life and death to some who, initially, did not feel they could continue a productive life after surviving a tragic accident. These highly trained companions have literally restored the will to live in their new masters; and WHEREAS, all creatures great and small have shared and will continue to share this earth on which we live and will be subjected to every facet of existence to which man himself is subjected. NOW, THEREFORE, I , BOBBIE H. GRACE, as Mayor of the City of Dania, Florida, do hereby proclaim the week of May 3rd to May 9th, 1993 "BE KIND TO ANIMALS WEEK" and urge any of our citizens who may be looking for an animal companion, to visit their local humane society or animal shelter where the perfect pet "friend" can be found.
