Dog Food...

Hungry though we can be, is dog food a supplement for candy or steak...?

Dog Food…


 


Made to keep dogs healthy,


And to make producers wealthy,


But, is it really that good?


If it is, does anyone think?


Just maybe we humans could,


Eat it; renewing our lives,


Or the better question,


Do you think we should?


 


Doggy biscuits are not too bad,


Especially the ones made with bacon,


They are almost good enough for man,


If you can ignore the packaging,


Stating for dogs only, so sad…


 


To dogs it has a great taste,


To me it doesn’t taste THAT great,


Needs to be more like candy or steak,


But Rufuz loves it, so much for his taste…


 


Less expensive it is than people food,


Puts Rufuz in a really good mood,


Maybe that in itself is reason enough,


To eat it with haste, forgetting the taste…

I must admit that Milk Bones ain't half bad - when I dip them in my coffee - and I'm too lazy to go to the store. (Don't tell my mutts; they'll get upset. I sneak them down to the basement.)
