My furry buddy<\/p>\n
is always funny<\/p>\n
for a small bite<\/p>\n
forelegs upright<\/p>\n
and eyes alight.<\/p>\n
He races hard<\/p>\n
round our backyard<\/p>\n
aside the fence<\/p>\n
woofs at some friends<\/p>\n
they answer back<\/p>\n
more to talk smack<\/p>\n
than warm yakety yak.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s always a dude<\/p>\n
who senses a mood<\/p>\n
curls up close by<\/p>\n
when we sob or cry.<\/p>\n
Always up for play<\/p>\n
fetching toys all day<\/p>\n
a game of kara-te<\/p>\n
hands and paws touch\u00e9<\/p>\n
is a favorite – yay!<\/p>\n
Lass and lord\u2019s best friend-ling<\/p>\n
his licks are never ending<\/p>\n
wet muzzle love tending<\/p>\n
tail wagging ever caring.<\/p>\n
