Today's entry, compliments of Robin's sweet daughter. Thanks, Madwilly, for taking Baxter's picture and choosing him as the subject of your poem assignment! :)
Baxter is a little like a cat.
He sleeps for hours in the sun like a cat.
But he is still playful like a dog.
He chases bunnies whenever he hunts outside.
He is always tummy tanning when he gets the chance.
Baxter is a little like a cat.
Baxter loves to play with his toys.
He also likes to sleep in the fresh warm laundry from the dryer.
But he is still playful like a dog.
Baxter loves his walks.
He will cuddle with you for hours straight.
Baxter is a little like a cat.
Baxter can do lots of cool tricks.
He can be a man and shake hands.
But he is still playful like a dog.
Baxter is the most lovable dachshund in the whole world.
No dog is like him.
Baxter is a little like a cat.
But he is still playful like a dog.

Your photos of adorable little Baxter are always so sharp and clear! May I ask what kind of camera you use? (Although, I would imagine, your subject matter makes for 90% of the picture quality!)
hi peejums - might i first say i love saying your id in my head! it's so happy sounding! yeah my camera is now old - it's a sony cybershot DSC-T50. My two primary rules for taking photos? no flash and hold the camera REALLY still. a tiny tripod helps a lot but that can sometimes take away from the spontaneity of the situation.
