A limerick, no? I could have danced a jig to the meter! I am so impressed with your tapestry of forms! I can tag you as a reference, when ever I'm feeling daring!

A very cute poem. You have the words used properly.

It reminds me of the 101 Dalmatians When a litter of Dalmatian puppies are abducted by the minions of Cruella de Vil, the parents must find them before she uses them for a characteristic of the devil.

This is wonderful! It's cleverly done to include all the required words seamlessly while providing an entertaining read. I admire anyone who can pen a good limerick. I bet smelly old Jean rolled in something disgusting.

I love it, your poem made me smile. I pictured giving my dog a bath and the hard time I had. I can only imagine giving a huge dog a bath. Luckily mine was a smaller dog. Great limerick and use of the words.
