Pudsy

I remember our dog Pudsy she was one of common breed

A dark brown female and very hairy she was quite a dog indeed

Medium sized and built quite sturdy she was involved in many a dog fight

Though of a scrap never the instigator she always won to our delight

All of our family did love Pudsy she to us was a dear friend

Though she was a dog who loved people against danger us she would defend

Tears were shed in our family the day Pudsy passed away

Though i am fourteen with three score years i remember her today

Pudsy gave birth to many puppies which we gave as gifts for free

The only pup we did keep off of her brown Jack died young tragically

He died when a farmer neighbour in his field hidden from view placed baited meat

Which Jack somehow did discover and died when some of it he eat

Pudsy she died as an old dog going back in time long ago

In the early to mid sixties time since has become my foe

But the memories with me linger of a faithful canine friend

And she is one i will remember until my life's journey end
