IF…

If you can run in woods all day, and not come once when called,
If you can eat the kinds of things that leave owners appalled,
If you can leave your fur in places that you’ve never been,
And be to blame for countless crimes which you commit unseen,
If you can chomp your masters things into a thousand bits,
And still ensure he feeds you first when for his lunch he sits
If you can pester picnickers that you’ve not met before
And be a pain whilst fast asleep as noisily you snore,
And if, e’en so, you’re loved by those that you drive round the bend,
It’s plain to see, for folks like me, you’ll be a Lab my friend!
