Teddy
While dog sitting little Teddy
Here's what I think he said;
“I'm one damn happy son of a dog
This month, I thought I would dread
But youse guys are the cat's moew
What a great doggie retreat
You made the adjustment easy for me
Youse guys are real neat
So when this month is finally over
We can't let this chance go by
Please try to negotiate with my owners
To stay here with youse neat guys
You probably think it's a trifle strange
But this is where I wanna be
And I'm not feeling the least bit guilty
My owners abandoned me!”
Tried telling him they'll soon be back
But it seems he no longer cares
Gonna miss him when he finally goes
This charmer has savoir-faire!

Sadly, Teddy the poodle has since left us
and gone to “Doggie Heaven”
