A-Z Monday: D is for


DOG

D is for Dog; This is our spaniel
When we first got her she came with no manual
But for the most part we figured her out
And we all love her, from tail fur to snout

Now our girl's aging, and she sleeps a bit more
And she doesn't hear when I knock at the door
And we take her more frequently down to the vet
But her heart is still gold and her nose is still wet!

Such a beautiful dog. Even though our pets may age - they always stay young in our eyes and hearts. I wish her many more years!!!

She looks very sweet. We have a cat who is 17. He sleeps most of the time these days.
