Oh, if dogs could write poetry.  What follows is a selection of dog haiku's which a friend of mine sent to me.  If you have any dog haiku's, I would like to get them.  Email them to me, and I'll post them and credit them accordingly.

I love my master
Thus I perfume myself with
This long-rotten squirrel.

I lie belly-up
In the sunshine, happier than
You will ever be.

Today I sniffed
Many dog butts.  I celebrate
By kissing your face.

I sound the alarm!
Paperboy--come to kill us all!
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I sound the alarm!
Garbage man--come to kill us all!
Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!  Look!

I lift my leg and
Whiz on each bush.  Hello, Spot.
Sniff this and weep.

How do I love thee?
The ways are as numberless as
My hairs on the rug.

My human is home!
I am so ecstatic I
Have make a puddle.

I hate my choke chain.
Look, world, they strangle me!  Ack!
Ack!  Ack!  Ack!  Ack!  Ack!

Sleeping here, my chin
On your foot--no greater bliss--well,
Maybe chasing cats.

The cat is not all
Bad--she fills the litter box
With Tootsie Rolls

Dig under the fence.  Why?
Because it's there.  Because it's
There.  Because it's there.

I am your best friend,
Always, but especially
When you are eating.

You may call them fleas,
But they are far more--I call
Them a vocation.

My owner's mood is
Romantic.  I lie near their
Feet.  I fart a big one.
