You Can't Ignore A Labrador

I have been asked my the lovely people at Macmillan Childrens Books to make up some poems about dogs and puppy's and stuff like that. So here's one I wrote on a slow train to Newcastle....

You Can't ignore a Labrador
when he's rolling around the kitchen floor
when he is barking at the door
or chasing his tail or chewing his paw
he bites it till he makes it sore
but he's not bothered he's got 3 more
he loves meat, eats it raw
with his slobbering doggy jaw
the greediest dog i ever saw
he likes his lead, knows what its for
knows i keep it in the drawer
life with him is never a bore
I'll say it like i said before
you can't ignore a Labrador
