This was a great poem. I have a wonderful German Shepherd that's smarter than my children. At first, I had a hard time with this. I wanted it to flow more. Then I realized you were on an 8 syllable count. Made perfect sense. Great job.

Nothing like a dog to express a true sense of love. You have done an excellent job of portraying that true bond between an owner and his person, er I mean an owner and his dog. Great poem and good luck with the contest.

A wonderful love poem,dedicated to a dog;
The rhyming flows ever so smoothly and perfectly,as we come to learn about the happiness that your canine friend brings into your life;
Plentiful alliteration in"licks loving laid", "big,black beauty", "long lasting love"
Does your dog resemble this dog,justchillin? He looks in need of a rest, from all of the walking and water play!

Labs are 100% love 100% of the time. What a beautiful tribute to your best friend and companion. I wish you long walks and cold noses - and slurpy kisses - always. :) nancy

'My Faithful Friend' is an extremely well-written piece. This talented poet's work was a pleasure to both read and review. It is not a mere coincidence that dog spelt backwward is God. Faithful, loyal and loving, dogs are gifts sent from Heaven.

Just Chillin', This is a loving poem, which your dog would be proud as punch, if she could read. I used to have a black stocky lab. They are loyal, affectionate, and smart dogs also. You have written and excellent piece of work. Carole

This is a wonderful poem about your dog that makes the reader feel good. I have a mini dachshund and can relate to your words. He play ball constantly and is a faithful companion. Excellent verses and flow of lines.
