Harlequin Great Dane They all loved your dog when he was a pup. I guess he went bad while on his way up. The comments you hear are terribly strange, And mostly they're said just out of your range. ******** He got all his wins at rinky-dink shows, Way out in the sticks where nobody goes. Recall a big win, you'll get a rebuke, His group placement there was only a fluke. ******** That dog is so bad, he should be a pet, And this they'll confirm, though they've never met. His legs are too short, his body's too long, Judges who place him, well, they could be wrong. ******** They try to find faults they're sure that he has, And choose to ignore how he shows with pizzazz! But should he be beat, and often it's done, The bragging is loud, "we beat number one!" ~©B.J.M. 2004~
