I concur. Dog farts are the worst. No matter how cute or elegant the poodle may appear, the smell of her farts will make paint disappear. See how she stands with her nose in the air, she is trying to escape the stench that will literally melt your nose hair. parle vous you old stinkiee poo.

Dog farts pierce like nasal nails.

Hi Bill. Oh dear. Everyone knows that poodles and ladies don't do that. They expel perfume. Can anything so cute be so foul? Good job with this fun piece. Marilyn

Lol. I have heard this kind of thing from dog owners. I wonder if like people, dogs lose some digesting capabilities as they age? Or maybe it's time to change the brand of kibbles?

But she looks so innocent. Are you sure it's her? lol That last line caught me by surprise.

It must be nice to have a pet that doesn't shed. I wouldn't know. lol

Thanks, da. I don't have a dog, but our daughter's dog passes gas that clears a room.

This was laugh out loud funny for sure. The graphic you chose is perfect. I'm not usually a fan of free verse but if you keep writing these I will be.

Oh my goodness! I was not expecting that last line at all and I actually laughed out loud....brief, but it did startle the cat! :) :) Hilarious -- so many people have talked about their pets farts...just never thought I'd read it in a 'pretty pink and white' poem - lol! :) Thanx for sharing! :) Yvette

I'm thinking you even have one or someone near and dear to you has one.
Or you've been around my daughter's dog which became my son-in-law's dog which comes to live with me for long periods and hunts down all sorts of disgusting things to eat on this old farm and then likes to sit under my computer desk and drop 'roses' that curl up and tweak the nose like a two-handed tweak and four gasps.
Oops, he's not a poodle.
But I recognized the stench in your write and became confused.
Ever sniffed a cat after digesting a few mice and sharing the odious result? I have one of those too. Still not a poodle though.
