Lyrics
Burt: Dogs are great. Squeeky: Dogs are fun Kitty: There's things to know when you get around one Squeeky: Not all dogs you meet will be gentle and nice Burble: If there's a dog you don't know, give him some space. Fallbot: Don't wanna shove your hand in his face. Sully: Whenever you reach for a dog, you gotta think twice.

Burble: Never startle a dog, Or make him feel fear Kitty: Like pokin' his eyes or pullin' his ear Fallbot: Don't yank with his tail or shut him in and suddenly leave Sully & Kitty: Don't be hittin' him, kickin' him, pokin' him, jabbin' him Sneakin' up behind him and suddenly grabbin' him Squeeky: Especially when he's eatin' Or lyin' on the carpet asleep.

Sully & Kitty: You never want to tease him Or do stuff that will not please him Like to hug him or to squeeze him way to hard And if you only just now met him, Don't reach out and try to pet him Ask his owner, will she let him And be safe, and on your guard.

Sully: If you ever come across a dangerous pup, Squeeky: Who bares his teeth, and comes runnin' on up, Sully: Sort of like he's gonna attack and you think that he may Burble: Keep cool and calm as you can be Squeeky: Stand your ground and act like a tree Sully: Hold that pose until he goes away.

Sully & Kitty: A dog can fast outrace you So just turn and let him face you Don't run, or he will chase you and might bite He can tell when you're scared stiff So relax, and let him sniff And once he gets a whiff He'll walk away, and you're all right.

Burble: But if you're tackled by a dog, Just stay calm and act like a log Squeeky: Lie there still and wait till he is gone Sully: Be kind to dogs Don't yell or hit Burble: If you understand them, you won't get bit. Burble, Sully, Squeeky, & Fallbot: And when you skateboard, bike, or hike, or jog, If some strange pup comes up to you, What's the proper thing to do? Never, no, not ever, startle a dog. Fallbot: That's man's best friend.''
