Doggie and Puddy Tat

Being shy Sassy used to run and hide when a stranger she would spy But the two old boys had none of that they would eagerly go on a barking attack Sassy watch them having fun and before you knew it she was the one Prowling the yard listening to hear anything approaching to bark at with cheer Being ornery I would point and shout bad old puddy tat when a stray one was about Sassy would see and bark in delight as the scared cat would scurry off in fright If stray dogs ever abound I would point and shout doggie and Sassy barking and running with clout So often did I do this now it seems in a way Sassy knows the meaning of the words I say For if no cat is around saying puddy tat Sassy looks for a cat to bark at Same goes for doggie she springs to bark but if not one there it saddens her heart So I only say doggie and puddy tat when there are stray dogs and cats So Sassy can run and bark at them brings her joy as her tail is a wagging.
