I Have Woofy Cough

Ok, don't come near!

I have coughs.

No I don 't have colds

but I have coughs.

It must be the heat

and sudden rains

and the humid air

which is not good for senior dogs like me . . .

The vet prescribed medications which I hate.

Keeper is pretty worried.

She wakes up late at nights to soothe me

or early dawn to massage my throat and tummy.

The Keeper assigned the Pop & Pup team

to look after me:

I'm not really sure about those two.

The puppy Kizu is just after my food and water!

. . . much like his Popsy Hughes:

. . . at least Hughes does not dip his paws on my water bowl!

But Hughes is forever on the lookout

for the dreaded Madman in his nightmares!

. . . so when Hughes is near me

he is also on the lookout for some monster!

Keeper told Hughes that he is now home

and we are his family

and we will take care of him

and protect him from any madman

except when I have a cough

and I am not well

and when Keeper is out

and Hughes is not sure

if he will be OK. . .

And when Kizu the pup is near

Hughes forgets his fear for a while

because Kizu always wants to play

and Hughes remembers that he wanted to play too

because really they are both still puppies!

Just watch it when you play

and you don't run all over me!

I should close this story with that

but Kizu does not believe in story endings . . .

And so I end as I begin . . .

. . . the superdog remain watchful

as I try to make myself well!

Stay healthy everyone!

Stay super.

Stay strong.
