St. Francis Dog Tags

As most of you know, we are all huge animal lovers and our pets are our babies!  We revolve our days around them and we try to spend as much time as we can with them because we are so obsessed!  We found these awesome St.Francis dog tags at a surf shop in Encinitas and we just had to get them for all of our animals so St. Francis can protect them when we are away from them!  We love the St. Francis prayer because we wish we could save all the animals out there that are suffering or are in pain!

 Shawna got one for herself and made it into a necklace!

Good St. Francis, you loved all of God's creatures.
To you they were your brothers and sisters.
Help us to follow your example
of treating every living thing with kindness.
St. Francis, Patron Saint of animals,
watch over my pet
and keep my companion safe and healthy.
Amen.

 We also found this prayer recently and fell in love with it! It's so horrible to think about all the awful people out there that are cruel to animals and the least you can do is say a prayer for them everyday.

Hear our humble prayer, O God,
for our friends the animals,
especially for animals who are suffering;
for animals that are overworked,
underfed and cruelly treated;
for all wistful creatures in captivity
that beat their wings against bars;
for any that are hunted or lost or deserted
or frightened or hungry;
for all that must be put death.
We entreat for them all Thy mercy and pity,
and for those who deal with them
we ask a heart of compassion
and gentle hands and kindly words.
Make us, ourselves, to be true friends to animals,
and so to share the blessings of the merciful.
