song for Chloe

Help us sing a song to our Beagle, Chloe.
My wife and I love to talk and sing for our Beagle, Chloe. This morning my wife started a new song, but we can't finish it. Can you help us come up with a final line?
(to the tune of I'm a Little Teacup)
I'm a little beagle, short and cute
Here is my tail and here is my snoot (like any beagle, she's got a crazy nose working all the time).
When I get all riled up, hear me snort (when Chloe get's excited, she does this little retrograde sneeze/snort thing, which apparently is very common among beagles).
...?
A lot of things rhyme with snort, but we can't think of anything funny/appropriate. Any help?

"don't tip me over just 'cause i'm short"?
"wagging my tail is my favourite sport"?
"songs about dogs are my favourite sort"?

NOW SHE'S HOME (hug her) in a COZY PORT!

An alternative to snort based on your description:
When I get all riled up, hear me sneeze
Life with me is such a breeze!

...A beagle like me can teleport
But please don't feed me any lousewort
/alternate ending
Algorithms, I like, including 'presort'
But make it W3C compliant, or I'll report
lucky beagle!

Alternate version:
When I get all riled up, hear me snuff,
And do the sweetest beagle stuff.
Anyway, "snuff" would open up some new rhyme possibilities.

Response by poster: LOVE IT! Keep 'em coming.
Obligatory puppy pics, so you know who you're writing for: Chloe the Wonderpup
So far we're liking: ...chasing April is my favorite sport. (thanks gursky: our neighbor's dog is named April and they chase each other all the time)
and ...hear me sneeze. / Life as Chloe is such a breeze. (thanks platinum)
How about: ...collab'rative songwriting should be a sport.
