The Alphabark Challenge, 2014!

Here, have a smooch 
From this lovable pooch
No A to Zed
It fills me with dread
So mark
And hark
Here's the Alphabark!
"A" if for "Arf!"
I'm having a laugh
"B" if for "Bark"
Sometimes I snark
"C" is for "Chihuahua"
Hello, how are ya? 
"D" is for "Dog"
A pawblished blog
"E" is for "eekPawblishing"
If that's your thing
"F" is for "Feline"
Having a whine
"G" is for "Gary"
How very scary
"H" is for "Howl"
Without a scowl
"I" is for "Insect"
A bug I detect
"J" is for "Jack Russell"
The dogs that hustle
"K" is for "Klahanie"
Pawmoting I see
"L" is for "Loon"
A Canadian tune
"M" is for "Metrosexual"
Such a transport ball 
On all things Metro
Didn't you know.

Halfway through 
Just for you
The Alphabark Challenge
My friendly revenge.

    Gary! That's the closest we will ever get you to the Challenge. And it rocks. Or rather, barks.

      Greeting ninja type dude,

      My human has gone into a darkened room. Has told me he might not surface until June. I bark and I'm having a lark. No, not the bird!

      Well done to me. Passing ships in the alphabet sea. If they can land a man on the Nevada desert, I can do the Alphabark :) You spell in English, English. That's a start.

    Looking forward to reading your alphabet challenge! very creative! Mine is so all over the place, I didn't do a theme at all. It's my first year doing this so am looking forward to seeing how all these creative ingenious folks in the blogosphere put theirs together. This will be fun!

I do try to comment back to each commenter individually. However, I might have to shorten my replies or give a group thank you. That way, I can spend more time commenting on your blogs. Thank you and peace, my friend.
