DOGS LIVE HERE... If you don't want to be greeted with paws and swinging tails don't come inside because dogs live here. If you don't like the feel of a cold nose or a wet tongue, don't come inside because dogs live here. If you don't want to step over many scattered toys, don't come inside because dogs live here. If you think that a home ought to smell of perfume, don't come inside because dogs live here. If you don't mind all of this, you will be instantly loved when you come inside, because dogs live here.

ALONE AGAIN... I wish someone could tell me What it is that I've done wrong, Why I have to stay chained up And left alone so long. They seemed so glad to have me When I came here as a pup. There were so many things we'd do While I was growing up. They couldn't wait to train me As companion and as friend. They told me they would never fear Being left alone again. The children said they'd feed me, Said they'd brush me every day, They'd play with me and walk me, If only I could stay. But now the family hasn't time. They often say I shed. They wont allow me in the house, Not even to be fed. The children never walk me. They always say, "Not Now!" I wish that I could please them. Won't someone tell me how? All I have is love, you see, I wish they would explain, Why they said they wanted me Then left me on a chain.

A FAITHFUL DOG... A Faithful Dog Will Play With You And Laugh With You -Or Cry- He'll Gladly Starve To Stay With You Nor Ever Reason Why, And When You're Feeling Out Of Sorts Somehow He'll Understand He'll Watch You With His Shining Eyes And Try To Lick Your Hand. His Blind, Implicit Faith In You Is Matched By His Great Love- The Kind That All Of Us Should Have In The Master, Up Above. When Everything Is Said And Done I Guess This Isn't Odd For When You Spell "Dog" Backwards You Get The Name Of God. By:Anonymous Dog Poem Public Domain Archives of Dog Poems

A Dog's Best Friend... O Lord, don't let me once forget How I love my trusty pet- Help me learn to disregard canine craters in my yard Show me how to be a buddy even when my sofa's muddy, Don't allow my pooch to munch the postal carrier for lunch, Shield my neighbor's cat from view, guide my steps around the doo, Train me not to curse and scowl, when it's puppy's night to howl, Grant I shan't awake in fear with a cold nose in my ear, Give me patience without end- Help me be; A DOG'S BEST FRIEND.

The Stray... Monday, the old dog said that a crumb would do Then On Tuesday the old dog asked me to make it two Wednesday, the old dog said he'd prefer to have fish And not on paper - he'd rather a dish! On Thursday, the old dog said it was cold out there So what about letting him sleep on a chair By Friday the old dog made it perfectly clear That he was planning to live in HERE On Saturday night he took half my bed And woke me up early to get himself fed Today we'll have chicken because it is Sunday I wonder what old dog will enjoy eating on Monday Author Unknown Dog Poem Public Domain Archives of Dog Poems

Puppies For Sale... A store owner was tacking a sign above his door that read "Puppies For Sale." Signs like that have a way of attracting small children, and sure enough, a little boy appeared under the store owner's sign. "How much are you going to sell the puppies for?" he asked. The store owner replied, "Anywhere from $30 to $50." The little boy reached in his pocket and pulled out some change. "I have $2.37," he said. "Can I please look at them?" The store owner smiled and whistled and out of the kennel came "Lady", who ran down the aisle of his store followed by five teeny, tiny balls of fur. One puppy was lagging considerably behind. Immediately the little boy singled out the lagging, limping puppy and said, "What's wrong with that little dog?" The store owner explained that the veterinarian had examined the little puppy and had discovered it didn't have a hip socket. It would always limp. It would always be lame. The little boy became excited. "That is the puppy that I want to buy." The store owner said, "No, you don't want to buy that little dog. If you really want him, I'll just give him to you." The little boy got quite upset. He looked straight into the store owner's eyes, pointing his finger, and said, "I don't want you to give him to me. That little dog is worth every bit as much as all the other dogs and I'll pay full price. In fact, I'll give you $2.37 now, and 50 cents a month until I have him paid for." The store owner countered, "You really don't want to buy this little dog. He is never going to be able to run and jump and play with you like the other puppies." To his surprise, the little boy reached down and rolled up his pant leg to reveal a badly twisted, crippled left leg supported by a big metal brace. He looked up at the store owner and softly replied, "Well, I don't run so well myself, and the little puppy will need someone who understands!" We ALL need someone who understands!
