Random Doggerel, 25

Random Doggerel

Misnamed, 15: rat terrier

A rat that is a dog—a dog that is a rat.
Oh, there is something wrong with that!

The one is a most valued pet;
The other? Well, I wouldn’t bet

That lots of people kiss their rats—
I don’t hear all those smooches, splats

That come from homes where rats abide.
(Who knows what’s going on inside?)

Yes, dogs are far more loved, I think.
And rats? Not valued like a mink!
