My friend, MY dog, Tiffany

Janice Lou DeFriece

I have a dog her name is Tiffany
To me she is terrific
She is 17 years old today
She is fast slipping away
Her back is sore, her legs are weak
Her eyes are blind, her hair is gray
But I love her anyway
If there is a heaven for dogs to go
She's on her way I know
I love her now, I loved her then
I'll love her til the end
Good bye my Tiffany ; Good bye my friend
Mamma loves you. Til we meet again
