Caren Krutsinger Poet Narrative

Buddy Our Chewer

We have had chewing puppies before we got Buddy.
But this is the first time we have had a dog with indestructible teeth.
Buddy can chew through tin cans.
He chews electrical cords as if they were popcorn.
Our vacuum cleaner cord is in fifty-six pieces now.
We have raised over nineteen dogs.
Buddy is the first Great Dane mixed puppy we have ever had.
I envy him his teeth.

L Milton Hankins May 22, 2022 at 10:06 AM Buddy is a very, very special dog, I think. I have followed his adventures since he originally came to you. I have seen the work of his paws and his teeth! He's a very lucky dog to have found Joe and Caren. Has he calmed down any at all? Caren Krutsinger May 23, 2022 at 2:11 AM He has torn the heck out of everything today - so upset that Mommy and Daddy left the house and were gone for 2.5 hours together. He was circling the car like a tiger when we returned to the driveway. Serves us right for going to a graduation party.
