No, Dog, you might think you’re cute
But you have besmirched my repute.
You pissed off the neighbours
With your bad behaviours
And now you have stolen a boot!
........
Steal a look at what others have made of Tess's prompt at Magpie Tales.
Send in the dog whisperer and get this poor pooch sorted out. Wish you could hear the laughter, Stafford. Thank you for sharing this brilliant limerick.
Negative Stafford. Sounds like CHIP ON SHOULDER. HAVEN'T YOU GOT A CAT TO KICK? -shouty capitals!! Paw doggie was been asked to go fetch the other boot that his stupid master hadn't been able to find for weeks!!!
and I thought he was just chewing on his masters boot! Nice to see you are back!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathe, I'm about half way back.
DeleteStill puppy love, though!?
ReplyDeleteHow could anyone not love a Labbby!
Deletehoping the owner gives both of you a little grace....smiles...
ReplyDeleteWho could stay angry with such a sweet dog!
DeleteI enjoyed this one :)
ReplyDeleteThey are adorable and they'll love you always. As the owner of a red cattle dog I empathise and smile :-)
ReplyDeleteThis was fun...I didn't. See the boot until after I wrote mine...

ReplyDeleteit's just a boot
ReplyDeleteDas Boot is an interesting part of this image , it is pregnant with possibility !
ReplyDeleteGreat limerick Stafford! Is there a pun intended on 'pissed' It appears so!
ReplyDeleteHank
Woof .. woof! Translation required of the poet.
ReplyDeleteBetter get that repute cleaned then ;) with all that besmirching. Where would we be without a Stafford limerick!

ReplyDeleteWho couldn't love the 'Please be my friend' look - and you have captured the to a T the rreason why the dog is wearing it.
ReplyDeleteI do wonder what dogs think. Like Kutamun, I thought the boot gave meaning to the body language of both man and dog.
DeleteLovely limerick.
ReplyDeleteAnna :o]
Woohoo! A limerick and one with meter and rhyme! So good to see!
ReplyDeleteDear Stafford,
ReplyDeleteI would never, never, never be able to write like this!
Lucky you! Haha!
DeleteBrilliant! LOL
ReplyDeleteThe dog's not contrite,
ReplyDeleteHe thinks it's all right!
Thanks Nell, I think the dog is confused. He has just brought to his master something he knows he usually gets for himself only to be chastised!
DeleteHa! Good one, Stafford. I love limericks. Even the clean ones!
ReplyDeleteThanks Bruce. I do too and am aware that most funny limericks are risqué, but there is a limit to what I will write for my blog.
DeleteBad doggie...did he chew the boot?
ReplyDeleteA nice 'bad doggie', what Lab isn't!
DeleteNegative Stafford. Sounds like CHIP ON SHOULDER. HAVEN'T YOU GOT A CAT TO KICK? -shouty capitals!! Paw doggie was been asked to go fetch the other boot that his stupid master hadn't been able to find for weeks!!!
ReplyDeleteHaha! You could be right!
ReplyDeleteI just love the way you weave your words. Very creative.
ReplyDeleteStolen a boot! Oh Stafford you are a hoot!
ReplyDelete:-)
I like the spin on your tale (tail)
ReplyDeleteI could only see the sadness
nice to meet you through Magpie Tales
cheers
