Pomeranian

Luscious, warm, extravagant fur.
Tangled up in her fur are brown spurs.
Wet, fuzzy tongue.
Licking and tasting, swung this way and that way it flung.
Refusing to go for a paddle.
Babies ride her like they're on a saddle.
Devouring her red, delicious meat.
She never would stay still to take a seat.
Long, split ends.
She never gets the message that her owner sends.
Her yipping and yapping drives you crazy.
She gets tiresome and is always lazy.
Her shiny, gleaming eyes.
She's a small, very small size.
You may need a net to catch your pet.
Your beautiful pet.
