Bailey the Whining Basset Hound

A dog named Bailey Is a basset hound She would eat all day If it could be done She always wants food Her stomach is never full At night when tired Her bed is made up In the laundry room a gate to block the door the whines to what seems Like hours on end Whines so loudly That seems like hours Only ten minutes Until it all ends

Hi Darlene, I don't have a dog that is hungry all the time like yours in the poem but I do have a turtle that comes over and begs for food.

Hello Bonnie Bailey the Basset Hound is not my dog. She belongs to my goddaughter. She is with me because of the heat being hot and humid. She is sick with cancer and her days are numbered. have a nice evening my friend.
