At first I thought lizbud was being mean (which I couldn't understand) or made a typo, but after I read the awful mean poem, I understood lizbud's reaction.

I'm not trying to start something, but I really need to know.

Perhaps this could be moved to the DogHouse, where Billy Collins apparently belongs?
Well, I cried when I heard it.

It was sad and wonderful from the standpoint of a dog.

Apparently, no one who 'rated' the post can see that it's a HUGE EFF YOU from the dog to the people who 'think' they know what is the best for their pets.

When I see 'pet lovers' that over think THEIR mastery of a dog, I want to kick them.

It's just a poem. Grab a grip of something and take a chill pill.

I think I am going to go kiss Tucker on the lips.

BTW, I said it was touching - not "wonderful", I already have enough feces coming out of my mouth for people to put more in.
