There is nothing that can bring me more joy
Than that fluff ball scampering around
He's my four legged precious baby boy
Fragile and tiny just nearly a pound

The king of his castle he is the boss
Strutting around all attention on him
Always excited for a game of toss
Are moments together are never dim

He is perfect in every shape and form
From his tiny paws and his little face
Every time he looks at me I transform
To mush, my love for him I cant replace

My tiny little baby and best friend
Always together till the very end

This was interesting, I've never  read a sonnet so light and boucy before! I really enjoyed reading this! (However I am contemplating  whether  you meant for 'our' to be spelled as 'are' in the second stanza.)
