Very well done, dear Rhonnie! A wonderful and witty rhyming poem. I like dogs very much if they are friendly. I was attacked by a vicious dog as a child. Great job!
All my best,
Sal :+)

I read your interesting poem on dogs ..
Just like people dogs have their personal space and when it gets ignored /invaded they can have unexpected reactions..
Dogs , cats do have a language ..it's a body language that all humans would benefit from if they learnt it..
Your poem is informative and does a good job in explaining what a dog is telling us by his/ her tail.
When I meet a new dog ...I watch what's happening with the tail ..only if I see it's waging do I proceed to the next step ..put my hand out slowly towards its nose so he can smell me.
He or she will then nudge or lick it .. Only then does that means I can touch .
Let's face it ..if a stranger would come up to me and touch my hand I would 'bite"too ,right ?.
We should learn to respect the personal space of dogs we don't know yet...we need to wait until they feel comfortable and give us permission to touch them ..they are not toys .

Never let a dog know you are a scared of it it can smell fear. Slowly back away so not run he will chase you and try to possibly bite you. Nice work up for your poem.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Very nice image and
presentation, Rhonnie69.
-I haven't seen you in a while.
-I like all the ideas you have
in the poem, and the rhyme, as well.
-I also like the style of how
everything is in pairs.
-I am assuming you have
a dog, or did at one time.
-You know a lot about their traits.
-I like all the different things
you show about how they
wag their tail, but all in
all, if I don't know a dog
really well, I don't get close.
-Thanks for sharing.

HELLO PAM: I haven't seen you in awhile either. It pleases me that I see you here and now. Thank you for the encouraging review. You are always appreciated. Straying from my friends is something that I hate to do. But you are a writer. You know what I'm going through. I'm in the process of penning-out the epilogue of my latest children's book. Burning the nightlight oil tends to get a bit confining oft-times. And writer's block doesn't help a heck of a lot. But the pen is the boss and its ink it does toss, and at the end of the night there is never a loss...and, "you know that." (smile.) God bless you, Pam. Cordially: rhonnie69. P.S. "Luv ya."

Thanks for sharing. It sounds like you are very busy with your book; congratulations on that and hope it is successful. You are very welcome for the review.

Your well-written rhyming couplets convey some interesting points and give some wise advice. The problem is that when we're scared, we sometimes forget all that we've been taught!
