My Chihuahua Thinks He's a Dane

I know this story is silly
but it's really very true
I have a Chihuahua named Brutis
but for short I call him Bru

With him I'm never lonely
because he stays right by my side
No noise nor bad weather or anything
could make him run and hide

In fact he thinks he is my watchdog
though he stands only five inches high
His chest puffs up and his ears pull back
if a stranger comes nearby

Now I wouldn't say he's spoiled
okay maybe just a little bit
He dresses in the latest styles
some of them custom fit

Some folks say I've gone to far
that some thing is just not right
But all I know is that I've gotta go
because it's time to kiss him goodnight

The dog with the 'tude of being nine feet tall and bullet proof. Love it. I have a Rat Terrier who I call the rat terror but he is not fearless but the Chihuahua and the miniture pincher both have the 'tude. Keep writing. Love the humor brightened my day. Sara
