I Am One of Those

I am one of those. At one time I had eighteen dogs. None from the same litter. I neuter and spay my animals. Here is the thing. I am an elementary school counselor And I cannot bring children home, Even though I want to rescue some of them sometimes. So I stop by the pound if I have had a really bad day And I adopt a cat, a dog, or a dog and a cat or two cats. Do you see where I am going with this? I brought home Happy, Go and Blue the same day, three dogs. And the next day had to run back to the pound for Lucky. When they give me "that look" as I leave, It is on! And Lucky had given me the saddest look ever. Pretty soon, we had so many heated sheds And we had roped off so much of the forest with fencing, It looked like we were running a concentration camp. Because being a grandma takes precedent we decided to move Closer to our ten grandchildren. We bought six acres, and knew we could bring our dogs and cats. Yes, I have four cats too. Only two dogs, and a cow were allowed. No more than two. What? I called everybody. They verified it. I had three months to find sixteen dogs a home, and I did. Lucky lived to be twelve, and Blue lived to be eight.
