The best friend most people have is their dog on your dog for friendship you can depend <br />Than your ever devoted canine you cannot have a better friend <br />Your dog will never forsake you he or she will be your friend for life <br />A dog's love you can rely on far more than the love of your wife, <br />There are so many stories of dog devotion risking their lives loved ones to save <br />When people they love are in danger dogs can be unbelievably brave <br />They've been known to save people from drowning and they've been known to save people from fire <br />They do not expect reward for their loyalty so much in them for to admire <br />Yet some do treat their dogs quite badly cruelty to animals is a serious crime <br />And perhaps for such an offence a good deterrent would be at least a year of jail time <br />Any dog is not born to be vicious 'tis their masters who make them this way <br />A cruel owners makes a dog dangerous that does seem a sad thing to say <br />Since dogs to us can be so loyal your dog to you can be your best friend <br />Your wife may decide for to leave you but your dog will stay with you till the end.<br /><br />Francis Duggan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/friendship-of-a-dog/
