Whether or not you have a dog,
you gotta watch out for dog breath,
it's everywhere and it can cause dire reactions.
For instance:
Lovely Saturday morning.
Sleeping in?
Did you train your dog to sleep OFF your bed?
No?
Prepare for the doggie good morning greeting.
The Bassets are the best breath~ers.
Crawling ever so cutely up the bed,
snuggling alongside your warm body,
calling ever so gently,
"MMMP, mmmp mmmp mmmMMM."
The song ends in a soft mumbling growling,
a musical note trills up the scale to a darling whine.
You do not respond, playing dead, hoping to dream a little further.
But there is no hope.
Pat the velvet fur to satiate dog who sends
clawing paw presses for action...
It's over now,
One single peek,
you are greeted by the big solemn, dewy brown eyes
more and heavier clawing,
more and louder growling,
and here it comes:
The ultimate trick in the repetoire!
A quick little bark in the face and
DOG BREATH!
Hot and heavy,
wafting over the covers,
Writhe in horror, shove the face away,
never disuaded from adoration of the honoree,
dog leaps into wakeup action:
Here come the sneezes flavored with:
Incredible and Horrible Dog Breath!
Now a burp threatens and...
Nevermind the sleeping~in possibilities,
You are done for.
Leaping out of bed is the only option!
Your pet is proud, happy, clattering around your ankles,
love, and joy never so strong,
deeply believing that
dog breath bestows the highest form of worship.
"MMMmmm! RUPP!
Good Morning,
Let's eat!
