A Dog's Point Of View
by pamela mcguirk.........................................
I was small for my type.
My eyes didn't match, what with one brown and one blue.
Can't understand why no one wanted me.
I'm very good at playing and I smile all the time.
Sharing my toys is a little harder for me. Although if you keep on trying I usually let you play with them too.
Somehow I wound up in Dog Jail, not even knowing what I did to deserve it.
Luckily the volunteers were so nice, they petted me, took me for long walks and always told me "Don't worry Bailey, Someone may pick you today." It's cold at night so one of the nice ladies gave me a blanket to cuddle.
Well the day has finally come!!! I barked and barked to tell the rest of the dogs the they might be next.
The Man and The Lady seem so nice. I wonder how it will be when we get "home".
Boy o' boy I never imagined there was a monster waiting for me.
He bounced on over and said "Hi" -- that's me!.My new home is wonderful.
We get to play all day, take long walks, we even lay side by side in the sun and take a nap. The food here is like a restaurant (if I knew what one was). I get gourmet' meals all the time.
He is older now and today he couldn't walk.
The Man took him to the Dog Doctor. He told us Hi is with all the other good dogs. Joey,Chibbi,Thelma,Hans, and Lukie.
I will miss him every day.
When I get scolded for doing something naughty I tell the people " The Big Dog did it"
Being an only dog is not so great for me. I get scared when I'm home alone and when the BOOM BOOM"S come.
We went to visit The Man in the hospital. It was very exciting. We rode the elevator and walked past all the other sick people. I even said hello to some of them. I made them smile too. The Girl and The Lady said I am the Best Dog Ever!
The Girl comes to visit, makes me happy. The Baby Girl is great, she knows how to play and I let her take my "treasur" ( dogs can't spell).
My belly is much too fat, I have to go to the Dog Doctor.
Wow, it wasn't that bad. Actually I feel pretty good.
Watch this -- I can run full speed across the meadow, my ears are flapping as I bounce along. The Big Dog taught me. We don't run we bound. Oh! Here comes Buddha and Bo Bo, let's play.
Buddha brings Tom to visit. The Girl takes me to see the goats. I like them.
Well everyone's gone home....
I'm feeling tired, maybe I'll turn in.
I dreaming---------
The Man is taking me to one of my favorite places. I get to see my favorite Dog Docotr. I can hear Hi barking and calling for me to come play. He says Joey there too. I don't know him but if he's ok . The with hi he's ok with me.
The Man is petting me but I really want to go and play. The man says it's ok. Off comes my leash and I bounding off to catch up with Hi in the distance.
Here we all are Kitty Baby, Thelma, Puss, joey, Hi, Chibbi, Hi and and ofcourse Luke. (He's really special).
We're watching to see what lucky dog gets to go home with the Man and The Lady. We know they will be very happy because if you're a Zimmerman
IT's a Dog's World.
