Today I went to see the doctor...by Rufuz

I want to thank my daddy AND mommy for takin' such good care of me...:)


Poem Artwork


Daddy AND Mommy took me,


To the doctor to see,


If I was okay as I am now seven,


They said they were trying to keep me too early out of heaven…


 


I guess I put on a little weight,


Only 6 pounds but it affected my gait,


Daddy & Mommy got me some new food,


Its supposed to help me in my senior years,


Them being with me alleviated, of the doctor, my fears…


 


Boy, I was still quite nervous,


Mommy held me while they gave me shots,


Daddy said it reminded him of joining the service,


The doc said my eyes were pretty, didn’t see any spots,


And my teethies were really clean and bright,


But to tell you the truth, I am really glad I am home with dad & it is night…J

My Jazz would start shivering just getting into the car, thinking he was going to the vet. Doggy treats are killers.

Glad to hear you're home, too, Rufie Boy. And when you and Mommy take that cantakerous old Dad of yours to the doc, you'll probably have to hold him down when he gets his shot! And start taking him for longer walks - he needs more exercise.

Good news sweet Rufuz. methinks your dad is feeding you too well. You'll have to learn how to refuse, now that your getting older. You look too heavy in your pic, but still handsome;-)!

Oh how sweet, your Rufuz sounds like my Boomer...a dear friend with a mommy and a daddy who love him very much. My Boomer must go on a diet too, I bought her the new "diet dog food" for more mature dogs..don't you just love the way that the advertisements are worded, more mature dogs...anyway, she hates it! Oh well, I'll keep searching until I find just the right food. Great write my friend, loved it!
Blessings,

I never have had a dog who loved to go to the vet, at least not more than once. I am glad that you are doing well, Rufuz, and that little bit of extra weight means that daddy has to take you out and play more often, so good going, guy!!!
Take care,
Sherry

Rufuz, you sound healthy like China. Bet you two would make some pretty babies (smiles). China says, Hi Rufuz, I'm 3 and a virgin.

Looks healthy and happy to me, but aren't dogs like 7 X 7 so Rufus should be about 49 and I think with a place of his own and not taking puppy talk...kidding...very clever piece.
