Following my dogs tail

Following my dogs tail…


        

 


He keeps me in line,


He treats me just fine,


Trekking softly on life’s trail,


It’s easier when I follow Ruffies tail…


 


Sometimes though he is the taskmaster,


Wants me to lose weight does he,


Makes me walk sometimes so much faster,


Fortunately though as a trainer he does not charge a fee,


He knows his old dads body is such a major disaster…


 


Never does he use a whip,


Though with his tail he is well equipped,


He just grabs my hands with teeth so gentle,


He never does to me to be detrimental…


 


So its exercise I do get,


He drags me along on each trek,


Keeping me with him waving a blank check,


Lets face it; we both have fun, neither have any regrets…

For good excercise. Grab the dog by the tail. And spin it around in the air. It's an ancient game Ed K teaches...

Rufuz truly knows how to take care of you - most animals do. And I'm sure he wants you to get in shape for your October trip, too. I see he's staying here inside my house with my two dogs, but it looks like he's reserved space for you out in the bushes - wear your longjohns, gets mighty cold out here in October!!

nice smooth, easy write. made me grin.

i've kinda adopted a stray cat here at my new place. now i ain't much of a cat man, but this little critter was so friendly i just had to feed & water. still keep "Boots" outside, but he makes for a good listening post when i need to talk.

God bless our furry friends.
