In honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday today, Brian’s Home Blog and Comedy Plus are hosting a blog hop. Four years back, we did a “OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO” post, which I ‘dogified’. You can read that one here. I’m using the same poem, just modified it a little. If you’re not a fan of potty humor, you may want to skip this one.
Today, I present to you, “OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO” for dogs.
Congratulations!
Today’s a new day!
It’s fun to do potty!
At home or away!
Your nose will lead you,
in the direction you choose.
With mom following behind,
trying not to trip in her shoes.
Start out up the hill, then turn right at the next street.
Sniff here and sniff there, keep moving your feet!
Wherever you go, wherever you choose,
you’ll find a good place, to deposit those poos.
The world is your oyster, there’s lots of places to go,
for puppies like you, sniff high and sniff low!
Of course, things can happen.
There aren’t always good smells.
So when life throws you those curves,
you can choose different realms!
There are so many smells, so many places to sniff.
So get those legs moving, go give it a whiff!
There are so many places.
So many options to choose.
Keep sniffing, keep looking.
Find your place to do poos.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
If the inevitable happens
and you need to push,
there’s so many options,
you can choose any bush!
The woods are always an option,
if you’re looking to pee.
There’s great satisfaction,
relieving yourself in a tree.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
There are so many spots,
rub-a-dub-dub.
There are mailboxes, flowers,
or even a shrub!
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
You’ll search and you’ll search,
but don’t let yourself hurt.
If you’ve waited too long,
drop a deuce in the dirt.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
If you’ve sniffed a bit long
and your sides start to heave,
don’t worry at all,
just go in the leaves.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
Except when you don’t.
because, I’m sorry to tell you,
that sometimes, you won’t.
If the nature is urgent
and you have to go fast,
don’t worry about sniffing
just go in the grass.
If you can’t find a spot,
don’t get perturbed,
there’s always the option,
to go on the curb.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO
All too soon, walks are over
and you’ll head to the door,
but sometimes, shit happens
and you’ll go on the floor.
OH THE PLACES YOU’LL GO!
Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! We hope you’re rolling over from laughter.
