Kinch Parker is his sire, you see,
So named for his Dad be had to

Some Spitz, Bull (with a spot on

But mostly Feist (fice) was his
pedigree.
He was almost white with a

He could loudly bark with a wail.
Three years and six months was

He Jumped and ran in such a

Now Kinch is not very nimble
For he was ten last November.

One dog will greet me no more.
That s why my heart is heavy

I'm thankful for the Joy he

a lesson to me he taught: -If
to an animal you are kind
Hell bring you Joy, you'll find.

When I knew it was goodbye,
A precious memory I can't for
