Your Dog Is Not a Pet

Listen to poem:

Your Dog is not a Pet
By Bob Moore © 2017

I remember when the dog
Used to be a pet
Now it seems that every day
More human they all get

They’re dressed in shirts and pants, and hats
And go everywhere you go
You have to take them with you
So all the world will know

You're not just a doggy lover
Your doggy is your friend
and whatever happens
you’ll be together to the end

So take your selfies with your friend
On Facebook they will go
So everybody understands
How much you love them so

He has never requested to be dressed in human clothes, but he is very demanding. But, he is also my very good friend. Enjoyed your discourse on our doggy friends! ~ john Login to Reply Robert J Moore Date: 5/28/2017 6:26:00 PM Thanks for the comment John, Cino never goes out dressed in clothes (I wonder if that embarresses him), and really only dresses up for photo shoots, seems to look forward to it

Jan Allison Date: 5/28/2017 3:51:00 AM Your poem made me smile Bob.Just my personal opinion but I hate seeing pets dressed up in costumes, it reminds me of a child being forced to wear something they hate and they look silly. I'm fine with them wearing little coats in the rain but as for dressing up costumes - yeuk and someone is making a massive amount of money for these things for them to wear!:-( hugs Jan xx Login to Reply Robert J Moore Date: 5/28/2017 7:46:00 AM I do agree Jan, but my granddaughter's terrier died a little while back, it was 18 years old, she had it since she was 7, now she is carried away with over loving this one... she just got married, so maybe she will have something else to dress before too long. xx
