guilty as charged poor little one was having so much fun. Great presentation, we had a puppy that used to dig up the neighbors flowers after they planted them

Your nonet describes the charm and frustration of puppies. They're into everything. I enjoyed reading this. Image is adorable. Much luck in the contest. Marilyn

Adorable poem to match an adorable puppy. He is definitely guilty. Your words flowed well line to line forming the message of the poem for the reader. your artwork and background color completed the piece well.

Well, now let's just step back for a moment, take a deeeeeep, cleansing breath and paws for a moment here before we go making any assumptions.
Maybe...just maybe...the little fella saw a rabbit nibbling at the vegetables there in your neighbor's garden. Since dogs are naturally hunters by instinct, he may have simply been trying to prevent a catastrophe.
So, in reality, he's a hero, not a zero!
I always try and root for the underdog, especially when it IS a dog, heh-heh.
Best of luck to you in the contest.

Good job on the nonet. And... Oh my, does that look familiar! One of my dogs loves going into the garden, even after a heavy rain. I am so tired of trying to keep muddy feet clean, I finally gave up and let her track it all over the kitchen floor. My hubby will see it and mop it up. He's good that way. :)

The title caught my attention and the picture made me go "oh how cute!" The syllable count is perfect for the nonet form. The humor of the story you tell is endearing. Best of luck with this beautiful presentation.

Oh dear! I hope your neighbor is a forgiving type - or a dog lover. Who wouldn't love such a cute puppy. Your nonet fits the bill superbly, and the image and presentation are great.

Wishing you luck in the contest.

A really nice pairing of photo and poem. Easy to imagine this rascal getting into mischief in someone else's garden. I like how you end the poem by focusing on the incriminating evidence.
