Dizzy, I'm chasing the furry snake from my butt
when I smell raw meat slapping hot oil.
Master does not give,
certainly does not understand meaning behind
"best friend."

I would give up all my toys
for juicy meats,
like the ones he eats.

I've eaten some strange things. Furry snakes are actually very smooth to pass.

Bad dog !
No begging.

Very amusing. My dog is convinced we love her, so of course she will be getting the meat if she just hangs around long enough and does enough party tricks.

I love everything about dogs. They make me happy.

Dizzy indeed, ha ha! Initially, that furry snake coming out of your butt flashed before my eyes like a parasitic alien from a bad SciFi flick and the raw meat slapping oil was not any prettier. But of course the chasing, master and best friend gave away the true beast herein. Nonetheless, I know where you are coming from, as I have two bengal cats (hybrids of Asian Leopard cat and the domestic cat). They come running when the raw meat 'slaps' the cuttingboard. However, once it hits the oil they lose interest. Cute and clever./Chris

... and when I'm grating cheese (as is my want sometimes), I think of my dead dog and that piece that crumbled off the block and was too small to grate, so I gave it to her.

My dog is also dead. Sorry to give you sad thoughts.

what spices of snake is the butt snake? i don't think i ever of that snake before . I am assuming this is from the perspective of a puppy or dog. Really gave me a boost. heh butt snakes

[newsclippings]

Snake spices? What?

[Bunx]

kind of gross... i guess it is my boy problem

I feel slightly immature for thinking " chasing the furry snake from by but" is funny but it sure is. This makes me feel sad for dogs everywhere who don't share their "owners" diet.

I could watch a dog chasing its tail all day, there is something simplistic and comedic in that activity that makes me smile, of course it only gets better with that half growl of excited frustration. Great poem and POV. Best TOMH
