By Tonya Calvert 93 Words It’s dark under here Hot too The family dressed me What could I do? I tried to run They said, “Come Duke, it’s fun!” So now I'm out here Trick or treat? All I see is feet! This is wild I’m a dachshund! Not a child! So here I am Parading at night Shadows and monsters What a fright! This is no fun! They dressed me As a hot dog ... In a bun! I want to bite an ankle Maybe a knee But candy corn just fell And no one saw But me!

Poor Duke. I don't blame him for wanting to bite ankles. But it sounds like he was happy to score candy corn. Great story, Jean!

Yes! Yes! Yes! A Halloween story from the dog's POV! Love it! At least it got some treats out of the humiliation. Great idea! 10/31/2017 01:10:31 pm
Thanks! I always my think my own dogs (shi tzus) are embarrassed when I dress them up :) 10/31/2017 07:10:53 pm
Love your story. Very different from the usual ones. Poor dog, how humiliating. At least he got candy corn! 10/31/2017 08:29:20 pm

This is fantastic, Tonya! I love that you wrote from the dog's point of view. Good luck! 11/7/2017 06:49:27 pm
Aw! Poor little hot dog doggie :) Perfect costume :) Love his low-down dogs-eye view! And glad it worked out for him... being in the right place to scarf up the candy corn :) Thanks so much for joining in the Halloweensie high jinx, Tonya! Leave a Reply. |
