Ditch An Itch

Hey boy I’m your long time suffering dog I need some of that love and tender care, I’m no farm yard live in the mire hog Here inside this thick fur lair Home to them damn fleas I swear, While you get it away when on the grog. Glad you are here at last some attention To check on my stress and hypertension. © Harry J Horsman 2013

Dogs do have that unconditional love down pat, in the end all they want is a pat. Good one Harry.
