I've got one and didn't have to resort to "Treasure Perfume".....
Liquid eyes beseech
Be my master, be my friend,
I am now your "child".
How about limericks?
I sing of the Jack Russell Terrier
A masterly rat and fox harrier.
Though smallish in size
He's not in his eyes
So size of the prey is no barrier.
I know, kinda trite, but I just dashed it off for the poetry contest thing on Poetry.com. I'm working on more for a book my daughter's writing. Ideas?

The one verse I saw in an e-mail version of Dog Haiku that is missing above (and it is one of my favorites) is
I hate my choke chain
Look world, they strangle me! Ack
Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack!

I starve, I perish
Will 5 o'clock never come?
Where is my dinner?
* * *
Spoiled, delicate
One hundred-forty pounds of
Love covered in fur
-
Root, dig, snort, dig, bark,
I have to find the vermin,
I am Terrier.
We're discussing doing a book in the Cat Haiku (Cat General, Cat Haiky-u <a fumble of the fingers> ) and donating the proceeds to three organizations in honor of Dogs, Cats, and Pets. Anyone want to do that?
Pets are people, too,
They just do not seem like us
They might be smarter.
I have gone ahead
Wait for you at the bridge
When you are ready.
Hmmm, getting morbid, I guess. Time for bed.

Ok, here's one submitted by my two "water" hounds:
Take us to the lake
You know how we love to swim
We'll be in the car.
-
Day begins with an
Insistent nose - how could I
resist love-fill'd eyes?
-
Snow...run, jump, dive, slide
Black and tan dog all white now
Had great fun today!!

***Save a life, ADOPT***

Winter is dog bliss:
Black nose snow-plows tunnels, paths
Of old scents, new tracks
A snowball is thrown -
I pounce! Hey, where did it go?
This white stuff hides it!
I, Saint Bernard, perch
On lofty, sturdy snowbank -
My own, private Alps
-
You are all so good at this stuff. I love each and every one. Keep them coming.
-
I try to be good
But even when I'm not, she
Says I'm the best gift
A tree in my house
Trimmed with lights and shiny things,
Candy canes - I drool!
Cmon, folks, join in!
-
Christmas Day is here.
Our presents under the tree.
We are family.

There is snow outside.
So wet, so deep, so darn cold.
I poop in the house!

We have all had days when we open the door for our doggie's morning bathroom trip and they look up at us on the stormy days and say with their eyes...."do I really have to go out there?" Seems like Tucker took matters into his own paws!!! http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/biggrin.gif http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/biggrin.gif http://PetoftheDay.com/talk/biggrin.gif You started my day with a laugh!!

Big winds came, and rain
Sticks and sniffs are everywhere
How to choose just one?
