My Dog, Happy

My dog, Happy,was a a Wire Haired Fox Terrier.
To Happy, in life, there no was such thing as a barrier!
Twas a lesson for me, I think, looking back, 
Let nothing stop me from forging ahead.
Not people, not fear, nor doubts. 
Just get off my duff, stop sniveling,
And leap out with joy out of bed.

Another pet poem by you that I totally relate to. You ask me why, my friend? Because I have a Pomeranian who makes me laugh without end. Dogs of all sizes have been pets of mine but shot, those little ones have senses of humor that are so darn cute!
