I love my pet! On this page I'll describe our dog and her special place in our family.

Patches

Little black and white
Shih Tzu
dog of our delight;
your howls and snorts,
shakes and songs,
dances and jumps
never cease to
amuse us.

A Dog Is God Spelled Backwards

Did you ever wonder why a dog
is God spelled backwards?
I think it's because of all
the creatures God made,
the dog is nearest to
God's and humanity's heart.
The animal who sticks with
us through thick and thin,
sorrow and joy,
trouble and peace;
the dog reminds us of
that supreme loyalty
and presence of God.

Patches

We love our little Patches,
she's the dog for us,
she likes to run and scratches,
never makes much fuss.

Walking The Dog

It's a daily round
of walking the dog.
Rain, snow, sleet,
gales, hail, heat,
cold, and in-between;
don't be mean,
walk the dog each day.
'But I'm too busy,'
you utter in defense.
'I'm too tired,' a second
complains, after a long,
stressful day. 'I'm going
to a meeting,' a third
proclaims. Meanwhile,
poor Patches moans and
groans, wondering how
long she has to wait for
her family to open the
gate and walk before it's
too late. We all look
at her big eyes, and decide,
it's time for a walk!
