Our Buttery Thief
We have a dog
Who is be quite lovable
Big dumb and adorable
He is our walking trash can
Anything from fruit n veg
To empty toilet rolls
He's quite adamant
That they should be
Empty of all paper
As he prefers only cardboard
It's for the roughage you see
He's constantly reminding us
But he's also acquired a taste for butter
It's for the extra fat he proclaims
He's underweight for winterfall is here
He has taken robbery
To feed his buttery addiction
He gets fat
While we starve, no butter we have
It is quite often we see
Our four legged addict
Scoffing down the butter
He has purloined from our kitchen table
But then the waterworks start
The eyes grow humongous
The ears droop like Droopy
And this sorrowful look
That his face transforms to
How could he not be
Anything else but adorable
Who is be quite lovable
Big dumb and adorable

Hahah.
Hey W!
This reminds me of our dog Rex.
Big baby. He loves McDonalds french fries.
He knows the sound of the bag when we walk in the door.
He'll sit there and drool everywhere until he gets a few.
Spoiled!!!

Hi A
This was so funny, I had just made us a couple of sandwiches and we had left the kitchen to relax and eat,,
I'm not sure what happened next but I suddenly heard this sound I knew so well.
Buster was eating something but I knew it wasn't his food. I had just gotten up to check on him but he he likes the sitting room too relax 😁.
He came in with the tub of butter in his mouth🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣,,
It was hilarious, couldn't stop laughing, and he refused to give it to me.
I had terrible trouble fighting him over it, he ran down the hall with it in his mouth I eventually got it off him.
You should have seen his mouth, he was covered in butter. Goddess, it was so funny, we were laughing all night over it.
Shame about the butter though,. Only one place for it after that, into the fire it went.
Couldn't trust Buster not to find it again.
So that's the story about that poem, funny but true.
Glad you enjoyed it

Good morning, Whyme!
Ohh Buster is a true mischievous boy with a load of hijinx in his bag of tricks!! That's just so freaking hysterical!! 😂 😂
I once had a dog growing up, Sugar was her name... I remember my dad making all the kids bologna and cheese sandwiches. Well he left like an entire package of open bologna on the kitchen table, turned around to get the condiments out of the refrigerator and *poof* when he turned back, ALL the bologna was gone, 'apparently missing' !! lol... hahaha... Man, I can recall that he was sooo pist!! haha... The more we laughed, the angrier he got because he knew better than to temp our dog so blatantly, as she moved like lightning when food was involved! Especially human food! .. lol.
They're sneaky, plotting opportunist!!! Awww... but I do love them so 🐶 💞
Poor 'lil Buster!!... I mean who doesn't love butter!?!?... Julia Child built her whole career on it!!! Ha!..🧈🧈🧈🧈 Yum!!
Thanks for sharing this heart warming read...

Hi Blue
There's so many stories I can tell about Buster, dogs can be amazing, can't they.
Buster has stolen so much, but never bologna, as we've never had it, have no idea what that tastes like. Just like I've never heard of Julia Child, had to Google her. She's a few years older than me, which is why I probably never heard of her:).
I had this whole long reply written out and whatever I was doing, I lost it. So unfortunately you're stuck with this second rate reply :)
Thank you for sharing your sugar story,
