My Neighbour and His Dog

My next door neighbour Is out walking his dog He carries baked goods His wife had baked early He cones to my door Then rings my doorbell With his dog by his side When the door opens The dog rushes inside Right into the kitchen Then rushes back to the front door I greet her pet her and speak I know that she wants a treat She eats the treat quickly She sits and waits for more Then comes to me to be petted I pet her while speaking Then they leave for home

Sometimes dogs can sense the dog lovers dear friend Darlene. I guess you're a dog lover like me, although the dog belongs to your neighbor. A splendid poem you've written here and I'm delighted to read it this afternoon. Thank you so much for sharing.

Sounds like a fun routine. Dogs sure do add an extra dimension of joy to our lives. I've got two cats; they can be fun also, but a little different behavior. A bit more independent, yet lovable. Joe.

Hello Joe, I am thinking of getting a black cat male. I would like him to be 4 or 5 years old. Ot a Tabby in an orange color. also male because i heard they are more affectionate. I have beem wanting a cat for the longest time. Thank you for lettting me know. Enjoy your evening .

Mamma and son -- they fight like cat and dog (if that makes sense), always slapping at one another. I think they would go crazy if they did not have the other to torment:) The Mamma is a Tortoise (sort of resembles a Calico); and Lover, the boy, is a Ginger -- quite the pair. Both affectionate. Great Watch Cats. When I come home, and they are in the widow waiting, and not hiding, I know all is well:) Joe.
