Two odes for a dead boonie dog

Never was boonie dog more persistent
Chasing cars he was sure quite consistent
He peed on my car
But did not wander far
For this dog's loyalty was infinite.

*****

Guard dog ferocious I never did fear
On his left side a flippy flop ear
He sprawled in the street,
Humped all dogs in heat,
But no bark could I ever hold more dear.
