Saturday Centus 112

Welcome to week ONE HUNDRED AND TWELVE of Saturday Centus from the wonderful Ms Jenny Matlock. 

The prompt this week is: 'It's an amusing little whine...' (and, yes, the misspelling is deliberate)
Number of words: 100 plus the 5 words of the prompt. 105 total.  Style of writing: Any

I don’t like a noisy dog
One that growls or barks
I want them to be quiet
As we’re strolling in the park.

I want them to lay silently
At my feet while I read
I want them to look at me
And communicate their needs.

I’ve had yappers
Who drove me quiet insane
Their persistence barking
Stuck needles in my brain

I’ve also had some growlers
That seemed to growl for fun
Didn’t need a reason
They growled at every one.

Now I have a whiner
He does it all the time
But I have grown to love him
It’s an amusing little whine.
