A Canine Collection of My Pet's Favorite Dog Poems

When you're kind to a dog

Good things come your way

Just a pat on the head

Can make a dog's day

When you own a great dog

Realize your treasure.

Be sure to appreciate

That your love gives him pleasure.

When you rescue a dog

You've displayed to mankind

Your unfaltering worthiness and

Beauty of your mind.

Always be kind to your dog

And you'll learn

That her undying love

Is a reward you must earn.

** Canine guardian **

At night in the darkness

Sleeping at the foot of the bed

Safety generator

Canine guardian

Watching over my son

Upon reaching manhood,

he will understand how

he reveled in security and comfort

Every night because of his

Canine guardian.

A mother wishes

Someday, when he's the father himself

He will make sure

His children

Know the same kind of

Canine guardian

** Good Girl, Bad Girl **

Those with two legs walk around and they say

That they know it all, that they'll light the way

But the deepest and most profound type of love

Comes from the creature that I call my pug.

She sneezes and wheezes and snorts then she smiles

Her curly tail goes crazy if I'm gone for awhile

Her adoration is pure, she's a light from above

That gregarious friend that I call my pug

As I type these National Dog Day verses

She walks on my keyboard, captures my purses

I'm signing off now to chase and go hug

That notorious pal that I call my pug.

** What is a dog? **

Home turf defender

Extreme tail-wagger

Owns an innocent face

and a guilty demeanor

Bark-and-go-sniffer

Champion sleeper

Overzealous face licker

The tail tells the tale

Wonders about humans

Mailman hater

Frisky friend

Basic Philosophy: "I got your back"

Best secret-keeper

Ultimate companion

Innocent playmate

Sadness repellent

Perpetrator of perfect unconditional love
