Sparky
POEM
Sparky rides proud on the fire truck
Ringing the bell and pushing his luck
He gets under foot when trying to help
He often gets stepped on and lets out a yelp!
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
1. There were four variations of the last line of text in Sparky's poem:
He often gets stepped on and lets out a yelp! (5-line poem)
Often gets stepped on crying yelp! (4-line poem)
He often gets stepped on crying yelp! (4-line poem)
Step on him and he'll let out a yelp! (4-line poem)
2. In April 1997, Sparky started showing up with Dotty tush tags. Ty had not yet released an "introduction announcement" for Dotty, so this tag discrepancy indicated Ty was about to release a new Dalmation named Dotty. Dotty was officially introduced by Ty on May 11, 1997. Dotty had the same style number as Sparky but a different birth date.
