Juno
Juno's part Akbash, part Caucasian shepherd.
A beast of a dog, as fierce as a leopard;
Around all the children, she's eager but sweet.
As big as a barn and as tall as a horse,
A mane of white hair that is matted and coarse.
Woe to the coyote she happens to meet!
At barely a year old, she's just a big pupper,
Especially when it is time for her supper,
And you would not believe the size of her feet!
She stays up at night, watching over the goats;
The chances they're bothered are very remote.
As guardians come, she's the package complete!
