They say a dog's a man's best friend,
With that I will agree.
A better friend than any one
Of us could ever be!

For dogs, you see, care not how we
Are dressed or how we look.
Nor do they care the type of home
Or college course we took.

They know not how to ridicule.
They know not how to hate.
They never become envious
When we befriend new mates.

Nor do they rate intelligence -
Nor care, if wanting's found.
They're blind to eccentricities
Though plenty do abound.

They do not understand a lie.
Nor care what station we
Attain along life's troubled road -
If even poverty.

They live each moment just for us;
Undying in their love.
And forsake not in manner which
Our 'friends' are guilty of.

Yes dogs, you see, are better friends
Than man could ever be;
With loyalty unquestioned and
Affection guaranteed.
