Barking Up the Wrong Tree

My Mix-Breed "Extra Fluffy" happy as can be Entered in the "Dog-Gone" trials Just one of eighty-three Some as big as horses some as long as trains Some so smart they spoke to you You'd think they had our brains The judges they were different though The scoring one two three For each performing act they did they all received a "three" Pretty soon they narrowed it down then narrowed it down some more Some dogs were none too happy now they didn't even score Terriers didn't stand a chance Dalmatians faired the same When a pure bred Poodle took the gold the Shepherd went insane How could they do this to these dogs? was it cause they aren't the same The judges? Mostly poodle breeds you think they were to blame?.....
