Introducing dog poems for kids can be a wonderful way to help them express their feelings for their pets. “A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself.” — Josh Billings When dogs enter a family, they develop close relationships with everyone in the house. They often become children’s playmates. Children start treating dogs as siblings and spend time feeding, bathing, and playing with them. If your children share a close bond with their dogs, you should encourage them to write a poem and dedicate it to them. This exercise may also help children to become sensitive toward all living beings. Keep reading if you are unsure how to help your child write a poem for dogs.
10 Dog Poems For Kids
Here is a collection of some funny, cute, and adorable poems on dogs.
1. French Doodles
If you go to Paris, you must take a scoop and watch where you step so you won’t step in poop. There are dogs on the sidewalks, the side streets, and more; dogs at the bakeshop and grocery store. There are dogs in the cafes, asleep by the tables, and happy dogs pictured on grocery labels. There are dogs in the bookshops, and dogs in the park, dogs in the daytime, and dogs in the dark; dogs getting ice cream and eating French bread, (not like my dog who eats dog food instead.) So if you go to Paris and like dogs an oodle, then have a good time, but watch out for the doodle! – Denise Rodgers
2. My Dog Likes to Disco
My dog likes to disco on TikTok for fun. He’d rather start dancing than go for a run. My dog likes to wiggle and jiggle and jump. He bobbles his noggin and wriggles his rump. And when he’s done dancing, this doggy of mine will pick up his cell phone and post it online. He puts up a video once every day so people can watch as he wiggles away. He started on TikTok for something to do, and now he’s on YouTube and Instagram too. He’s trending on Twitter and Facebook as well. I guess that I should have been able to tell. You see when I rescued my dog from the pound, the sign said, “Purebred social media hound.” — Kenn Nesbitt
3. A Dog For All Seasons
Some like San Diego, where the weather’s always great. I prefer the seasons that we have near our Great Lakes. In winter, when I walk my dog, it’s freezing, but we go. He sticks his head in snowbanks, and his facelifts up the snow. When spring is here, the leaves sprout forth. My dog is such a pain. He dashes out and tromps into the puddles in the rain. The summer’s warm and humid, and the sun shines hot and bright. I take my dog out, walking in the coolness of the night. When autumn comes, we really like the brisk October breeze. We crunch the leaves together as they float down from the trees. Some, like San Diego, say it has the perfect weather. But we prefer four seasons, that’s my dog and I together! – Denise Rodgers
4. The Story Of Nibbly McNibbleson
Nibbly McNibbleson was the dog nibbling queen. She’d nibble everything when she couldn’t be seen. She nibbled her legs, and she nibbled her paws. She nibbled so much; her poor body was raw. Then, she nibbled her blanket the whole of the day, to the point where she’d nibbled the blanket away. One day, she tired of nibbling her bed, and decided she’d try doing licking instead. So, she licked all the mirrors, the tables, and chairs. Then, she licked all the rugs and the carpeted stairs. Her licking won a place in the dog Hall of Fame, and so Licky McLickerson became her new name. – Unknown
5. 99 Dogs
I saw two people heading off for a walk with 99 dogs in a pack. So, I asked them why they had so many dogs, and they thought for a while and said back, “We’ve tried having different numbers of dogs: from a lot to hardly any. The lesson we’ve learned is 98’s not enough but 100 dogs is too many.” – Unknown
6. Tribute to a Best Friend
Sunlight streams through window pane onto a spot on the floor… then I remember, it’s where you used to lie, but now you are no more. Our feet walk down a hall of carpet, and muted echoes sound… then I remember, it’s where your paws would joyously abound. A voice is heard along the road, and up beyond the hill, then I remember, it can’t be yours — your golden voice is still. But I’ll take that vacant spot of floor and empty muted hall, and lay them with the absent voice and unused dish along the wall. I’ll wrap these treasured memories in a blanket of my love, and keep them for my best friend until we meet above. – Unknown
7. My Dog
My family got a new dog. Its fur is short and white. I absolutely love him, but something is not right. His ears are soft and long and flop along the side. His tail is quite short But also very wide. He’s positively quiet. He never makes a sound. He’s got a real cute jump when I put him on the ground. I’m sure when he grows up. He’ll be massively strong. His favorite food’s carrots He eats them all day long! – Steve Hanson
8. Unsatisfied Yearning
Down in the silent hallway Scampers the dog about, And whines, and barks, and scratches, In order to get out. Once in the glittering starlight. He straightway doth begin. To set up a doleful howling. In order to get in. – R.K. Munkittrick
9. My Dog Glory
My dog Glory is oh, so nice She has sugar and a little spice. Whenever I see her it brightens my day, The clouds in the sky go away She would never hurt anyone. She would never bite, She is my love My one delight. If anything happened to her, I would cry, I probably would die. I love her so much And she loves me, If you saw us together you would drop to your knees. That is the poem that cheers me up, It helps me when things are tough. She is the one I kiss good night We would never get in a fight I love my dog more than anything in the entire world! She rocks! – Ashley
10. Monroe
My loving puppy, Monroe, is a snowball falling from the sky. Monroe, a living puffball running across the field. As I listen to my canine pup I hear a kettle ready on the stove. When I feel Monroe I love the wetness of his tongue. Monroe, like a comforter blanket at night, Monroe, like a pillow after a 20-mile run, The smell of him is a bath in the sink, Monroe, outside on a warm summer day, Monroe, like fresh snow straight from the ground, My puppy can be tasted even from far away, Monroe, fresh brown sugar straight from the store, Monroe, my lifelong dream come true! – Allie
