Description:

A dog wearing a hat and smoking a pipe stands on a dock in the rain with an umbrella stemming from his nose and a sail tied to his tail.

The “Little Jack Tar” rhyme goes:

There was a little dog, such a nice little dog,
And he was such a funny little fellow;
He used his tail for a leg-of-mutton sail,
And his nose for an um-br-ella.
