Chip

My name is Chip
cause I’m so chipper
dumped at the pound
when no on was around.
I’m a senior
half blind and scratching
infection in my ears
but I shed no tears.
I’m friendly and happy
love people and dogs
just want a nice home
where I won’t be alone.
Thank goodness for rescue
I’ll have a family real soon
with people who care
and love to share.
