Precious

Precious Our special dogs' name is Precious She is very playful and funny too The kids really enjoy her antics Let me tell you about a few My daughter Chaunte sat on the sofa Eating a sandwich this particular day When Precious jumped on the end table Ran on the sofa and took Chauntes' sandwich away My son Marcus is somewhat disabled And Precious takes advantage of him I dread He left a sandwich on the computer table Precious ate the meat but left him the bread When at the dinner table Precious had no favorites She got under the table hoping for food to fall She went from child to child for handouts She'd get so full she couldn't come when you call Poor Marcus would take Precious outside for exercise But when he wanted her to come back in She'd look at him and just continue to run around If he tried to catch her she knew she would win
