I received this in the mail today, from a longtime friend who we met in obedience class 40 years ago. isn't it nice that most "dog friends" become life long friends. it is of course also off season. But if I tried save it until Christmas I would loose it in cyber space. There was no author listed. Enjoy Beryl Eshom THE MEETING PF THE DOGS The dogs all met once Christmas, they came from near and far. Some dogs came by Greyhound Bus, while others came by car. The purpose of this meeting?? To fill the world with glee, And put a brand new puppy under every Christmas tree. But a special hall was rented, and the landlord did declare, he didn't want them running 'round just pooping everywhere So before inside that rented all the dogs could even look they had to take their "hineys' off and hang them on a hook Then once inside the meeting.... each mother, son and sire some cat dressed in a dog suit began to holler "FIRE" They all rushed out, that pack of dogs, they had no time to look, to see which type of "hiney" they grabbed off its little hook. They got their hineys all mixed up, it really made them sore, to have to wear a hiney they'd never wore before. Then, once the chaos ended, so did the dog's grand scheme, And the kids who dreamed of puppies were left with just a dream. It's also why you'll see a dog give up a juicy bone to go and sniff a hiney to see if it's his own. ============================================================================ POST is Copyrighted 2006.
