The Doggone Dog Contest

I guess it would cause oohs and ahhs
if I wrote of the doggie's doo dahs
So I'd best keep it clean
even though it will mean
this 'tale' will be wagging the dog, haha.

Got a great laugh thinking of the tail wagging the dog, Sharon. I'm sure you intended to use "tale" to describe your poem. Wishing you success in Andrea's contest. Love, Carolyn
