Smudging windows with your nose,
Marring floors with dirty toes,
Shedding on the furniture,
Crud you’ve rolled in cakes your fur.
Snoring, scratching, snorts and whines,
Odors one cannot define,
So many things best left unsaid,
For now, it’s late. Hop in my bed.
What Rhymes with Stanza? 
Sometimes pets make things dirty, but we love them. 🙂 Nice rhyme and rhythm in your quadrille.

Amazing how we love our pets in spite of what they put us through. Perhaps a good lesson for life as well!

Love it. I love how the poem ends after you list all of these dirty things the dog does. 🙂

Thank you. My dog actually sleeps on the floor at night, but it’s of his own choosing. I would most likely tolerate all those things for the little angel 🙂

It’s in their eyes. They enchant you into thinking they’re adorable in spite of everything.

😀 I’ve read an article about it. They look at you as the new-born child looks at the mama. In such a way that she can’t say no.

Your dog is beautiful, I had to laugh at smudges on the window. They do like to look out them and put their nose on the glass.

Thank you. I dunno… I think I can be much more tolerant of dogs than people. 😀

I am right there with you. If a dog goes to bed with some dirty feet it’s to be expected. If a person tries to do the same I would chase them outta bed until they cleaned them 😆
