Did you know that today is Limerick Day? A limerick is a five-line poem that is humorous, nonsensical and often naughty. Here are a few limericks about our four legged friend – all courtesy of King Poetry. They are the more subdued ones.

Limerick #1

I met this incredible sheilah
I took her home, then tried to feel her
But there on her couch
I gave a loud “OUCH!”
Her chaperone was a Rottweiler!

Limerick #2

I went to a dog show at Krupps
Unfortunately, deep in my cups,
A Basset Hound, lying
Tripped me, I went flying
Into trophies and ribbons and pups!

Limerick #3

I lived in Alaska with ease
No worries, not one did I freeze
I slept with my pinscher
And when it was winter
I dragged in my three Pekinese!

If you think these poems are funny and want to try your hand at writing a limerick, visit Poetry America. They will walk you through each step to your own, custom poem.
