The Perfect Sheltie

 

There's no such thing as the perfect Dog
People will say to you
And when it comes to Shelties - 
Boy, is that ever true!  

Some are too big and some too small
Some hardly have any hair at all
Some are too bold and some too shy
Some have a short tail or a big round eyes  

Crooked legs and splayed out toes
Prick ears and hound ears and odd coloured nose
The perfect Sheltie just can't be made
But here's one thing that's really great:  

To be perfect in their owners' eyes
Shelties only need one part
And every Sheltie I ever met
Had that loving Sheltie heart.
