Ludicrous Dog

Shadow of a dog scared the workers who were pouring our basement.
It looked like a giant dog; like a Marmaduke of a dog, like a beast.
One of the workers crawled out of the pit to have a closer look.
It was a friendly dog with a huge body and enormous head
It had the shortest tiniest legs ever put on a dog with a body this size.
A weird combination of dog, moving slowly as it scampers away.
The ears flapping behind, making it look even more ludicrous.

It's funny to see a sight such as this. Some animals really are ludicrous looking.
