Haiku My Doberman Pup

Haiku Chloe, My Doberman Pup

Chloe my sweet pup

Fits in the palm of my hand

But won’t fit there long

 

 

She grows like a week

Getting bigger every day

Four pound, ten pound more

 

 

 

First a playful pup

Chloe finds protective mode

Listens to commands

 

 

Friendly to a fault

She thinks she’s just a lap dog

At eighty-nine pounds

 

 

Should named her velcro

She’s a leaner; yes she is

Lays head on my life

 

 

She’s so protective

Of two smallest grandchildren

No one dares come near

 

 

She’s playing dress up

With necklaces and earrings

Wearing Lyndsey’s dress

 

 

When she’s dressed like that

She doesn’t look so fierce

Unless you come near her girl

 

 

Loves to play Frisbee

Michael laughs as she jumps high

Catches ever time

 

 

Sleeps in grandma’s bed

Just like a puppy so small

Snuggles in the night

 

 

They do have bad rep

By people who don’t know them

Really big babies

 

 

Dobermans are smart

Chloe shakes and does high five

And other tricks too

 

 

Sits and stay when told

Balances treats on her nose

Until I say eat

 

 

She watches TV

Loves her Animal Planet

Barks at cats and dear

 

 

Plays with Anubis

He was there when she was small

Now he’s small; she’s big

 

 

 

Two peas in a pod

Cat and dog sleep together

Laying nose to nose

 

 

Chloe loves to play

With many squeaky toys

Sleeps with a stuffed dog

 

 

Should you fear these dogs?

No not if they’re raised to play

And taught their commands

 

 

Still, I must warn you

Don’t come calling in the night

Chloe is on guard

Wow what a great piece and your dog looks so nice. I have a bassat hound. My two year old named him Mr. Poopie Magoo. It is amazing how pets become like family. Great piece.
