Our dog Nipper has an "official" song. It's one of many, really, but nearly every day of his 14 3/4 years with us (except for the six weeks he was with his birth mother and littermates), I have sung this to him:
(To the tune of "Rubber Duckie".)
Nipper Newbold, you're the one -
You make our house lots of fun.
Nipper Newbold, we're awfully fond of you -
Boop, boop, be-do!
Nipper Newbold, joy of joys!
So pretty it's hard to believe you are a boy!
Nipper Newbold, you're our very best friend it's true!
Chorus:
Everyday you roll over and we rub your tummy.
Why? 'Cause it's so furry and chubby!
Rub-a-rub-rubby!
Nipper Newbold, you're so fine -.
We let you outside when you whine.
Nipper Newbold, we're awfully fond of -
Nipper Newbold, we'd like a whole kennel -
of youuuuu!
I have a theory. Life is a huge musical and there is a song for virtually everything! Do you sing to your pets? Bet you do! What songs are on your personal menagerie's "Hit Parade" list?
