This is a unique poem. We usually fix our dogs and I wonder if they do seem less interested in females. This is a humorous short poem that fits the contest theme. Best wishes for the contest.

This 3-5-3, Hot Dawg, has the proper formatting and seems to be saying something about neutering a dog with the emphasis on not proliferating the species.

Hi Poet!

There is some clever double entendre going on in this short 3-5-3 piece, including a twist on pet orientation.

Good luck in the contest.

A good entry for the 3-5-3 Pet Orientation contest. Yes, this is what usually happens when we learn that our pets have grown big enough to be interested in the other sex. We fix them and they aren't even broken! Good luck in the contest.

This was a wonderful playful and humorous poem. It was a true delight to read. Your poem captures a mix of surprise, wit, and a touch of absurdity that made me smile from beginning to the end of it. You have taken a light hearted topic and made it into something quirky and clever, very impressive.
The brief lines give your poem a fast and playful pace, that enhance its comedic impact. Your image that you used is adorable and goes well with the poem. Well done.

I do not get it. Did you think the dog was gay, bought it because you wanted a gay dog, and then found out it was straight so you took him to the vet's to render him neutral, so there would be no puppies? Or did you want a gay dog because you already had a gay dog, and you wanted him to have his own special friend? he wasn't gay, so you tarted him up? It is very confusing. Straighten this up, I'll give you a 5. Karen

    Thanks Karen but I've deliberately left the interpretation of what it means up to the reader, though the presentation itself provides a hint! There can be no straightening of this ambiguously gay dog without cruelly docking his tail, so sadly he'll have to settle for a 4.

This short poem really tickled my funny bone. I think you are very clever (whoever you are) and I hope the dog is happy now that she's fixed him. LOL Very cute and sure to be a favorite vote-getter. MM

This is a humorous entry in the Pet Orientation contest. When I was a kid, my father owned many dogs, all beagles for hunting. He claimed that one of his dogs was gay and only sniffed other male dogs. He sold that dog to someone who wanted a pet.

Can a dog be gay? I don't know. You presented an interesting thought. Best wishes in the contest.
You brought up an interesting

Lol. What a cute fun story about the fixing of a dog. It definitely worked within the requirements of the 3-5-3 style. And your picture choice is adorable as well.
Thanks for sharing this with us and good luck in the contest.

Heh heh, poor little dog, to know that he wasn't gay made him a possibility that he might impregnate every single bitch in the neighbourhood and beyond, beautifully written my friend, good luck, blessings Roy
