Hairy Maclary

The other day I was walking around the house with the words 'Hairy Maclary' and 'Donaldson's Dairy' stuck in my head...along with pictures of little black dogs with tiny paws... where did these seemingly random memories come from? (I seriously wasn't sure)

Thanks to Google and the mysteries of the Internet, I am able to revisit my childhood.

Introducing...



Out of the gate
and off for a walk
went Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy








and Hercules Morse
as big as a horse

with Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy







Bottomley Potts
covered in spots
Hercules Morse
as big as a horse


and Hairy Maclary

from Donaldson's Dairy




Muffin McLay
like a bundle of hay,
Bottomly Potts
all covered in spots,
Hercules Morse
as big as a horse


and Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy



Bitzer Maloney
all skinny and bony,
Muffin McLay
like a bundle of hay,
Bottomly Potts
covered in spots,
Hercules Morse
as big as a horse

and Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy









Schnitzel von Krumm
with a very low tum,
Bitzer Maloney
all skinny and bony,
Muffin McLay
like a bundle of hay,
Bottomly Potts
covered in spots,
Hercules Morse
as big as a horse

and Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy








With tails in the air
they trotted on down
past the shops and the park
to the far end of town.
They sniffed at the smells
and they snooped at each door,
when suddenly,
out of the shadows
they
saw...








SCARFACE CLAW

the toughest Tom

in
town.

"EEEEEOWWWFFTZ!"
said Scarface Claw.



Off with a yowl, a wail and a howl,
a scatter of paws and a clatter of claws,
went Schnitzel von Krumm
with a very low tum,
Bitzer Maloney
all skinny and bony,
Muffin McLay
like a bundle of hay,
Bottomly Potts
covered in spots,
Hercules Morse
as big as a horse







and Hairy Maclary
from Donaldson's Dairy














straight back home
to bed.









The End.



[My favourite was always Muffin McLay...like a bundle of hay]
