Thoughts About my Two Little Dogs.

Mikey and Sandy, straining at the leash.

I thought about the past few days 
and of our life as we travel around 
me and my two little dogs 
whose company I find so profound 
they cannot drive or do the chores 
and are no help from day to day 
they cannot even fix their food 
relying on me in every way 
and yet they are so dear to me 
important in so many ways 
ready and eager for me to say 
it is time for walkies in the Sun’s rays 
they give me love and attention too 
and are the only company I know 
and if only they could talk 
it would be easier for them to show 
just how much we are a team 
me and my two little friends 
as we travel around in our RV 
driving around until the end.

  1. Oh, you make me laugh. Well the part about “the end” didn’t make me laugh. I think you should drop a teeny tiny treat in each grocery bag when you come back from Walmart. Just think how much fun they would have although it sounds like they enjoy helping out because of the great smells in those bags.

Now planning on spending the rest of my life in Henly RV Park, Texas in The Caboose, a 45 foot long Jayco Bungalow. I am too old to drive around anymore and the interest is not there but it was fun while it lasted…

      Good idea on the treats although, they have to be in a “treat” mood to even lookat them.

      • Islay is always in a treat mood. I read that some labs have a defective gene so they really don’t know when they’re not hungry.

    Maybe that is what I had when I was younger. Disappeared with age though. Looking around at some of my neighbors, they definately have it.
