I'm a pedigree,
A WFT!
And proud.

Part white, part black,
I nothing lack! 
I'm proud.

Canis familiaris
Is what I is!
Quite proud.

A Scot, a Brit,
Both labels fit! 
So proud.

    1. Bertie would like to have included a verse about how he used to be an EU citizen and proud of it, and how he would love to be so again. But he couldn't fit that into the scheme of the poem!

  2. That's a very nice poem Bertie. You're a lucky boy that Gail will write a poem specially for you. Not much chance I'll get one from my human - she'd be hopeless at rhyming!

    Love,

    1. Hi Inca,
      The literary types tell me that poems don't have to rhyme, but between you and me, I prefer that they do, at least somewhat.
      Toodle pip!

  3. You are the perfect WFT and so is your poem, Bertie. Our scruffy faces tend to collect bits of nature but who cares, right?!

    (who notes that in the event of the United Kingdom crumbling, you will always remain a Brit - these being the isles of Britain and nothing to do with the union of government over the countries within it...)
