I think I know what the hell that Knuckles poem was doing with the Australian German Shepherd!
I was a big fan of the Sonic comics as a kid, and vaguely remembered some characters who fit the description, and after a while of cruising a wiki for the comics, discovered
the Dingoes, which were nazi monster cockogues and, of course, created by Ken Penders.
I am not sure why the poet chose to call them German Shepherds, but I assume it's from not knowing what a dingo is. That seems likely for the type of person who would write Christian poetry about Sonic comic characters from '97 that got erased from continuity.
