This is such an adorable photo, is this part of dog training for real or clever photography? Your poem is a scream my friend, all the best in the contest but I have my perceived conception , this limerick is a winner. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Dear Jan, your limerick about poor Fido waiting in line is humorous and endearing. I loved the way you captured the relatable moment of a dog impatiently waiting his turn, adding a playful twist with the rhyming scheme. It's a delightful of the simple joys found in everyday moments. :) - Blessings, Daniel

The Limerick form has now gone to the dogs. I'm impressed with it, and also with the patience and training it took to get those dogs to hold still long enough to snap the pic just when one Fido lifted his leg!

It is nature's way. But seems we humans send our pee and poop down pipes to dump in the nearest river. Best wishes. Tony X
