Two Puppy St. Weilers Play Rough

We’re Beckett and Takeko, two blogging Saint-Weiler dogs ,,,
When adults, we’ll be big and sleep like giant redwood logs.

We get to run when our owners go outside for a jog.
Our owners think we’re as cute as English hedgehogs.
We hope they don’t make us drink any sailors’ grog …
They won’t think we’re so cute when we’re lost in dense fog -
or perhaps in a big city that’s congested with smog
and full of noisy cars that cause a giant traffic clog.
Or we jump headfirst into a stinky, slimy, messy bog,
trying hard to get our paws on an army of frogs,

They want to buy us toys and treats from a catalog,
(What’s a catalog? Is it a log for cats to lie on?)
but only treats fit for lovable TV-viewing watchdogs -

We’ll beg them not to entice us with some eggnog!
That’s something we think should only go to a hog.
