THE K-9 COUNTY FAIR

(Chapter 9)

Was a wonderful day

in the neighborhood

of K-9 Town, USA

the K-9 County Fair was back

there’d be plenty of fun today.

The pack had entered

many games

and many contests too

some of them

would just walk around

to keep an eye on their crew.

Omar Blue, wolf Bennie Bay

and lab-dal Major Diggs

decided they’d just walk around

and eat like hungry pigs.



There's a good spot



 They came across the big space

that held the poker game

if Rasta Kooley was in it

he’d like it if they came.

Now komondor Rasta Kooley

did enter the poker game

he knew he’d win some furs today

the others felt the same.

The Elders were looking over him

amazed at how cool he played

they’d never seen nothin like it

when the last card had been laid.

Kooley picked up his winnings

the fur was nice and thick

Omar Blue smiled to himself

was he good or just too slick?



He'll keep a few pups warm



Then the males went to the females

their contest was almost due

something to do with hairstyles

can’t guess what, can you?

They knew the komondor Kooley’s wife

and the poodle Sophie Jean

were in this contest to decide

who’d be the hairstyle queen.

The female Elders

worked hard that week

messin with their hair

giving them both

the best hairstyles

of any K-9s there.

  

The females from the other packs

they had nice hairstyles too

but when Kooley’s wife
 and Sophie came out

Isn't this something Sophie

everyone stopped to view.





The judges were looking hard at them

couldn’t choose but had to try

so after too much time was spent

they called a first place tie.

The Elders were so proud of them

males and females too

the female Elders beamed with joy

cause they shared first place too.

Was the komondor’s wife

who spoke up first

to poodle Sophie Jean

“I’m glad to share this prize with you

and a year of being queen.”

OMAR SPOKE

“Let’s gather up the puppies

it’s been a pretty long day

they sure are having a real good time

but we’d better be on our way.”

The shepherds moved

ahead of the pack

gonna reel those puppies in

they’d get no rest

til the youngins were back

playing in their own Den.

The Chihuahua puppy triplets

puppies Lee, Lii and Luu

had entered the puppy

eight legged race

with 12 legs in full view!

Yeaaaaa! Yeaaaaa!

The judges thought this was okay

cause they wouldn’t keep the pace

but the puppy leaders

with their cheering pals

easily took first place.

As the pack moved out of the Fairgounds

a call to Omar came

it was Bee Bee

the beautiful afghan hound

her eyes held a special flame.

Said, “Omar why you leaving now

can’t you stay awhile?

I’d like to get acquainted

I really like your style.”



I want to go with you!

Omar looked at Bee Bee

she was a lovely sight.

“Gotta get my pack back home” he said

“I’ll return later on tonight.”

When Omar caught up with the pack

all heads turned and beamed

then Rasta Mama said to him

“You two were in my dreams.

The afghan Bee Bee has eyes for you

I think you’re smitten too

she wants to come into the pack

my dream said this she’ll do.

    

She’ll keep the females happy

she cares for hair and feet

they’ll give you their approval

they think she’s pretty neat.”

Omar just looked back at her

so Bee Bee wanted to stay

he’d let the females work it out

they did the very next day!
