It's Saturday, so time for a dog song at Talking Dogs.  Our song today celebrates pet adoption.

When I Found You (The Adoption Song) was written and is performed by Jayne Olderman.  She has dedicated it to all who have adopted and loved an animal or person.  

Get the tissues handy for this gorgeous video of before and after adoption photos.  Rescue and shelter groups featured include:  the German Shepherd Rescue of Orange County, the Human Society of Northeast GeorgiaPilots N PawsHall County Animal Shelter.

Here are the lyrics to When I Found You (The Adoption Song):
When I Found You
So many in the room; it overflowed
I felt so sad for all those unadopted souls
So desperately in need; but, I chose you and you chose me
And so it goes, so it goes

Somewhere along the way my heart was broken
I lost a piece but that's ok 'cause now it's open
There you were you were my choice; You gave me purpose and a voice
That swelling in my chest is love filling emptiness

chorus:
When I found you I knew you were the one
In your darkest hour did you know I'd finally come?
The past is done and gone, now we're going home to make a brand new start
When I found you I found the missing piece of my heart

You're more beautiful than beauty; wild as the wind
With you I'm closer to God than I have ever been
We've been moving towards each other through endless space and time
Some say I saved your life, but, it's you that has saved mine

And when our time on earth fades into mist
We will meet each other at the Rainbow Bridge
Though it's a mystery; I know it's meant to be

Since I found you my life's forever changed
You've made me more than I could have ever been
That day I promised to always be there for you; We'll never be apart
When I found you
When I found you
When I found you I found the missing piece of my heart
