Small and scruffy,

brown and woofy,

Spikey Spike dog,

is my puppy.

 

Scared of cats,

sniffs the breeze,

barks the birds,

to the trees.

 

Sits and begs,

for a treat,

always savoury,

never sweet.

 

Longs for noodles,

shivers for cheese,

dog snot windows,

covered in sneeze.

 

Paws all a twitch,

Whoops delight,

dreams of walkies,

in the night.
