The Red Dachshund Pup
As a pup she sailed through the air
Jumping from chair to chair
An eagle's elegant poise void
Just a thud 'pon the air
Those short legs carried her swiftly
As her chest drug the ground
Most all small furry creatures drew
A bristle and grrrr sound
Her red coat matched her fiery growl
As enemies she faced
Until that brave cat stood her ground
And a red dachshund chased
The moral of this story is
Don't get all bristled up
You might meet your match dear friend
In a small dachshund pup

ReplyDeleteCute. We once had a red dachshund puppy. He cut his teeth on our rosebushes. Disliked dry food. Begged for bits of children's hot dogs.

ReplyDeleteYour message is so close to my heart...funny creatures are loving, and can certainly stand their ground when they face enemies. I have a cat who stands up to anything that's not friendly--sharp claws and teeth.
