Bruzo My Dog

Bruzo my dog


Little pup at my maternal uncle's house,
Moved from his mother's lap and chose mine,
Pure black, on forehead a white stripe,
Tears of love in his eyes, that I did wipe ,

Reached my home and added onto family,
Dear he soon became, grew up hastily,
Faithful, wagging his tail in affection,
Clever and alert, wit in perfection,

A burglar's alarm, awake at nights,
Sweet morning walks and evening fights,
Winters, summers, autumn, rains and fog,
With every season bloomed, Bruzo my dear dog !

Dear Dr. Upma, Bruno is not only a delight, he serves a purpose in providing you with an alarm system. Quite a witty write, tempered beautifully with lines of love. Congratulations! Love, carolyn

you said black, is it labrador? But I bet maybe a smaller breed with that white stripe on it.

Andrea it was a mountain dog, a friend brought from Tibet , gifted black female mother wid three pups, all jet black ,to my maternal uncle,, only one that had only one white stripe at forehead accompanied me home. Such a delight !

It was in 1985 that we brought him home, he lived for 7 years, intelligent,very sensitive n affectionate, we didn't eat for months when he left us ,, thereafter never had any ! It's really sad to bear parting , they hv a very short life span !
