Saw Giant Dogs.
Big Guy says "deer."
They don't wag.
🐾 Still investigating squirrels,
Tux
Met five hoo-mans.
Got five head pats.
I prefer treats.

Mama gave me three.
Big Guy says I've had enough.
Mama counts better.
🐾 Trusting Mama's math,
Tux
Subject: Neighborhood
Everyone knows my name.
I don't know any of theirs.
Seems about right.
🐾 Making friends one sniff at a time,
Tux
Little dogs bark.
Big Dogs whisper.
Still deciding.
🐾 Respectfully wagging,
Tux
Everything changed.
Big Guy smiled.
Home smelled like Mama.
🐾 Filed from ankle level,
Tux
Saw my first
Amazon truck today.
Hope there's a rope in that box.
🐾 Reporting for belly rub duty,
Tux
Big Guy catches fish.
Then puts them back in water.
I have questions.
🐾 Waiting for this to make sense,
Tux
Subject: Fetch
Big Guy throws my stick.
I bring it back. He throws it.
Hoo-mans learn slowly.
🐾 Continuing his training,
Tux
Subject: Big Guy's Hobby
Big Guy sits on porch.
Drinks something and watches me.
I think I'm his hobby.
🐾 Keeping Big Guy busy,
Tux
Big Guy said,
"Sleep in box."
I slept in bed.
🐾 Until next sniff,
Tux
Big Guy hits white ball.
Then walks around looking for it.
He does this for fun.
🐾 Still looking for the point,
Tux
Subject: Bunnies
Bunny crossed my yard.
I requested an interview.
Bunny declined comment.

Subject: Weird Dogs
Dog lives in the window.
Copies everything that I do.
Never smells like dog.
🐾 Remaining suspicious,
Tux
Big circle walk.
So many new smells.
Home found me again.
🐾 Pawfully submitted,
Tux
