Before Duke shakes a leg, he sniffs around Some doggies chase squirrels like Harry the hound Sparky crying mutt Says he’ll bust his gut Begs for more pee-trees in the park playground

Funny...you are making me laugh. I'm wondering how they got this picture in the first place. Tranquilizers?

Thanks for making me smile! dear Anaya, you are quite talented at limericks as well. It's a good idea to have more trees. A tree might be an alternative to standing in line for peeing.

Good one Anaya, more pee-trees are a great idea, a tree in time saves peeing in line… Beryl

Duke, Harry and Sparky have more patience and curtesy than most of my friends. I also participated in this doggy humor contest, lot's of luck! Robert
