Fart Attack

I awoke last night and fell out of bed.
A fart from my Pit bull nearly left me for dead.
It was silent but deadly as it stunk up the house.
None could stand up not even a mouse.

I hit the floor hard her toot was sure ripe.
Tangy and pungent with an everlasting bite.
I crawled through the kitchen and out towards the door.
I couldn’t believe it was somewhat worse than before.

Shaken not stirred I caught some fresh air.
How can something so strong come from such a small derriere.
An emergency button installed in plain sight.
It opened all windows and brought peace to the night.

There’s a moral to this story, be careful what you eat.
Don’t share with your dog, its not a good treat.
A surgical mask and some good rubber gloves.
Will go a long way for the Dog that you love.

Absolutely hilarious! Still wiping tears from my eyes - classical gas - must have come from musical fruit! And a well constructed write to boot! Thanks Mark for the side splitting laughter. Beware of boxers too! Be blessed.

Then, the same neighbour threatened to call the SPCA on me when she got out there again, just because she could. She was a nimble smart-ass. Her name was Ass-teroid ;), (aka megabitch)

...then there was the time my first husky mutt ate beans. I was woken up by a neighbour hammering on the door to tell me my dog was on the roof. She couldn't wake me and didn't want to mess in the house, so she crawled out the front window onto the peaked roof over the porch. Then there was me in a nighty on the roof scraping it up...

My rottie has bad gas as well. But at least you can hear hers and get the hell away.
