A Habit To Nab It

A hound-dog I know had quite a habit
Of chasing every skirt 'til he'd nab it
   He joined a fox-hunt
   Then let out a grunt
Instead of a fox, he caught a rabbit

This is so clever and humorous Gershon ! Are there any hidden punches?

Nope, I don't think so... But remember: I just write 'em; I don't explain 'em. :)

Too cute Gershon. WE have a Hound Dog named Scout and he loves to catch whatever is running. It's all a big game to him. Not a mean bone in his body. Loved this. God Bless, JB

Send Scout my way, and I'll get him in on the next duck-hunt. Is he a pointer?! :)

I'm still waiting for someone to comment on a hound-dog chasing a skirt... I guess that happens nowadays. Welcome to 2022, Wolf! lol. Thanks, Kenneth, for a doggone good comment.
