He’s a Funny Guy…

Poem Artwork

Granted he’s no Turbo dog,

Of Ed Kostro’s fame,

But he does some funny things,

All the same…

 

He plays with his treats,

With his paws he pushes them around,

He picks them up and throws them,

Before he eats them on the ground…

 

He tells his dad he wants out,

With a look at the door and back,

He sleeps on the couch,

But gets off before I do him see,

I find furry piles, giving me no doubt…

 

Of course he chases squirrels & cats,

But what would he do if actually caught one,

I have no idea, nor, I’ll wager does he,

For both he actually seems to try to climb,

Up a tree & stands on his legs behind…

 

Well, like I said, he may not be a Turbo dog,

But smart I think he actually may be,

He never walks on a leash, always he is free,

And he stays with his dad, never does he wander,

He also with me watches TV, causing me to ponder…

Hello Ed,

What a fine dog he is, and this is a very fine tribute to him. Like what M. Ed says, he has to be - to live with you (LOL)! Bet he'd like to get a hold of the remote to change the channels! (Nice photo too- but where are you?)

He certainly is "Mr. Personality" not to mention a wonderful friend as well as a loyal and loving companion. Merry Christmas to both of you!
Take care,
Sherry

He's a funny guy indeed Ed. And also, I believe, your best friend. Life is so very nothing without our furry friends who are more loyal and comforting than any human has the capacity to be.

Give Rufuz some candy canes and he'll become a Turbo Dog too. He's your buddy and Ed and he gives you so much love. He's special in his own right. Well done...Love and hugs, Bonnie

Thank God, that just like people, no two dogs are exactly alike. And Rufie Boy is one fine dog - he has to be - to live with you!

PS He's also a mighty fine poet, and I'll soon be posting a truly heartfelt Christmas poem that he sent to Turbo by e-mail!!!!
