A Husky Ling a Long

In a small district in Thailand not so long ago 

Arrived a ball of fluff with blue eyes and long white nose

 

The hair so long and mattered the paws big and strong

All black and white the puppy so they called him Ling Long

 

To start off with the puppy seemed gentle and small

But soon he grew stronger and grew to be tall

 

Now we all know that animals grow attached to another

And soon Janphen became the fur babies mother

 

The company of people he preferred more then other dogs

So he slept in the bedroom and the bed blankets would hog

 

He loves big adventures whether they be close or far

At the sound of the door opening he would jump in the car

 

Ling Long loved to go for long walks with mother too 

But so strong on the harness it was he that pulled you

 

The other dogs became jealous and with Ling Long would fight

Janphen called out no more boxing and Ling Long kept out of sight

 

But Ling Long a clown that wanted to have fun and play

So the children poked and teased him for most of the day

 

But when Mother called no Ling long you must “non” today

Which is the Thai word for sleep and Ling Long would obey

 

He really is a beautiful soul handsome loyal and funny too

He would eat rest and play always loyal so obey he would do

 

One more thing about Ling Long that sets him apart

This dog often speaks to you and not in a bark

 

So everyone loves Ling Long wer’e sure to agree

That this black and white fur ball is a great big puppy.
