I think this is a funny entry for the Humorous 5-7-5 contest.
With your few words you've told a funny story about your dog.
Well done and good luck to you with the contest.

Thanks for sharing this humorous writing about a dog fighting with that shadow. I don't believe I've ever seen that. I'll have to watch for that.

A very well-written 5-7-5 humorous poem it is always hilarious watching an animal chasing their own shadow or tail. They seem to seriously don't know it is their own.

Comment from Debbie Pope
Poor pup. Like his tail, that shadow will not leave him alone. He can't go anywhere without it. Like you say, it is like it is tied to him.
This is a cute entry. I wouldn't change a word except "dog" is misspelled in the descriptive line.
Good luck in the contest.

That would be funny sight to watch. I hope he's playing with it and not afraid! Shades a cat chasing its own tail. I have trouble conjuring up humor. Good luck with the contest

You have made excellent use of all of your syllables in this cute 5-7-5.
It is a lot of fun to watch pets perform their antics! They are entertainers without intending to be.

That was nice visual imagery in a short poem. Dogs and barrette fish have the same little fighting soul. Well thought out. Clearly written. Nicely done. Good work :)

You've written an excellent 5-7-5 poem for the humor contest
I've seen many a dog chase their tails
but never their own shadow
Excellent picture
Good luck in the contest
