The saying goes that "man is dog's best friend". Others find that other pets are also up to the task. The companionship that animals offer is different from human interaction. Human communicate with speech and although this is an advanced form of communication, it has its limitations. Sometimes people struggle to say the right thing when what we really need is to be simply there for each other. Because animals cannot talk they are superior to humans in detecting the feelings of others. A pet may be able to offer a level of companionship that is deeper and more satisfying than human interaction.

A dog wandered into our garden one day,
A friendly old mutt, didn't look like a stray.
We never discovered whence he had come,
But we brushed him and fed him and the kids called him Rum.
That is such a good poem. My husband had a large Doberman. Everyone was afraid of this dog, but he would lay on the floor with our children and let them pull on his ears. My Husband said he...

You're the best friend I could ever ask for,
The one I can talk to.
You listen to everything I have to say;
I'm really going to miss you.
This is a very lovely poem. It really touched my heart. My poodle is getting older now. I'm sure, when he passes away, I also will write a poem about him (Energy). Thanks
There is sorrow enough in the natural way
From men and women to fill our day;
And when we are certain of sorrow in store,
Why do we always arrange for more?

Pets are people, too, just like me and you.
They need food in their tummies and lots of beefy yummies.
They are little, but their hearts are BIG.

I've had many dogs in my life! Growing up as a little girl, I remember my father taking my younger sister and me to pick out our first dog. He was a terrier mix, and my father named him Spud...
You may be a dog,
But to me you're more.
You're the light in my fog.
You put up with our war,
It's a touching poem. It reveals how both young and old seek love in faithful animals as their necessity is not identified by the others at home or in society.

My puppy is a handful,
So full of energy.
She jumps around to greet us
And wags her tail with glee.
Today we had to let you go.
It broke our hearts in two.
We had to leave you at that place,
Alone and feeling blue.
I had a pet dog as a child. It was like a member of our family. She was very intelligent too. She left us a long time ago. Reading this poem brought back memories of the moment I shared with...
Buster, Sparkle, Newbie, Speedy
and then there's Pixie our smallest kitty,
One, two, three and four and five,
they're so frisky, so alive.
An adorable poem for a cat lover. This poem reminds me of all the cats I used to have and will have.
Slowly and slowly,
She started to fall.
Her eyes opened and closed
As she blinked.
I had my dog, Lucy, for my entire life (I am 12). We had to put her to sleep on February 17, 2015. I loved her; she was my best friend. She was the best dog ever! I miss her to death. One...
