Premium Member Dog Thoughts
He sat with slightly tilted head. He didn't wish to be misled. The command seemed arbitrary, and, frankly, pointless - very. Why would he want to sit like stone when he could be burying a bone? As a proud bulldog of station, he had some reservation. Chewing on nonviolent resistance and his owner's strange insistence, he decided not to risk it. After all, it was a...

Do All Dogs Go To Heaven
Two best of friends met in a place where most animals go after life. Ballyregan: "I run all my life... until I retired." Scurlogue: "I've won many races, but I had one race where I ran back and not finish the race." Ballyregan: "Why?" Scurlogue: "Because I wanted you to win!"...

There you will be
There you will be If I could step a foot into eternity and reach open the door there you would be, waiting for me. Paws that waited what seemed an eternity to you. Ready and up you go jumping on my legs, tail wagging, you would entice me with your glistening eyes, your velvet...

War And Peace
Altho' 'tis something any sane man would disdain, should abstain from and abhor, there are those I condemn who choose to cry, 'Mayhem!' and let loose the dogs of war. Meanwhile, no need to think twice, I prefer a 'purr', to play nice and release, tho' they may be old hat, the pussy-cats of peace. ...

Holding the Bag
If you own a dog, at some point you Will be carrying a bag of poo, At least if you’re considerate And follow laws regarding s#%*. There are some, though, who flout the rules And think that bagging crap’s for fools. A joke said, aliens did land And, struggling to understand, Determined that the smarter race Were not the humans, for their place Was...

MY BRAIN DOG
I have a brain. But not just any brain — I have a brain dog. It doesn’t sit. It doesn’t stay. It runs. Fast. Far. Wild. It sniffs every thought ever thought. Dreams in 4D. Overthinks lunch plans like it's nuclear policy. Sometimes... it chases shadows. Dark ones. Horror-movie-type thoughts. So I lock it up.! “Time-out,” I say. “No more mind mazes today.” And there...

That Canteen Guy
Just a few days in, college felt new, Chilling in the canteen with my unusual crew. I saw a guy feeding pups with care, And told my friend, “Yaar, ese bhi log hote hai.. it's rare!” He was just another face, A guy with a gentle grace. We laughed it off and moved on from the scene, Not knowing what that moment...
