Doggerel

by Anya Laurence

The Scottie :  Scottie, Scottie, trim and nifty...
Are ye careful-are ye thrifty?
Will ye mate soon with a cairn
And end up with a mixed-breed bairn?

The Schnauzer:  My Schnauzer loves frankfurters, the hog...
So I sit there and watch dog eat dog.

The Great Dane:  The king of the bow-wows, the Dane,
Is regal, imposing and vain.
When he's quite old and weak
And well past his peak
He'll strut with monocle and cane.

The Afghan:  Look at the Afghan,
So beautifully built...
You'd never suspect that
He's only a quilt.

The Dalmatian:  Dalmatian, what to call you
With your coat suffused with dot...
Not Prince or Pal or Fido...
We'll just have to call you Spot.

The Pit Bull: You were snoozing the day we passed by,
And you looked like a real nasty guy...
Big and hairy,
Vicious and scary,
So we thought we'd let sleeping dogs lie.
