New Puppy
Don’t smell crotches, don’t eat plants.
Don’t steal food or underpants.
Don’t eat my socks, don’t grab my hair . . .
DON’T RIP THE STUFFING FROM THAT CHAIR!
Don’t eat those peas! Don’t touch that bush!
Don’t chew my shoes … What IS that mush?
Eat your cookie, drink your drink.
Outta the toilet! Outta the sink!!
AWAY FROM THE CAT BOX, IT’S FOR THE CAT!!
(And MUST you kiss me? After that???)
Yes, raising a puppy is not for the lazy!
Though puppies are funny, they’re also quite crazy.
But don’t despair, though its toil and strife.
After 3 years, you’ll get back your life!
So, let’s go for “walkies”, you can “do your thing”.
(And perhaps I’ll get back my GOOD DIAMOND RING!)

Yep, Riley is living up to this poem! He even chews on mom’s ring while she is wearing it! I bet Dixie is living up to it too!

Awww, but when a puppy sleeps – so cute cute cute!!!
When we get another puppy here, we will share your poem with him/her.

Woof Rusty,
That is a pawsome poem. Mom laughed so hard she spilled her beer(of course she’s had a lot of beer). But it is the truth about puppies, isn’t it? Hope you’re doing ok.
