Though I may not have a tail,
I do have a tale to tell
It’s fur Ani’s Advent Calendar, and well
I think that’s swell.
So here’ my story to tell:
Once upon a Christmas night
beneath a tree so bright
there was an unexpected sight
that gave me quite a fright
between and betwixt
a mound of ribbon and bows
there arose, a button nose
and a pinkish tongue
that quite suddenly, sprung
into my arms . . .
she was brown and white
and such a delight
I named her Wiggles
because she made me giggle
I knew one day
she would go away
yet, even after all these years
she still remains
that sweet little doggy
who stole my heart
Oh, that’s lovely, Kathy 🙂

Hi Liz, yes, Wiggles is a name I’ve loved for small dogs. My current dog’s name is Bunny. She’s a 16 year old dachshund.She got that name because as a pup she hopped like a bunny instead of running..still does sometimes. :o)
