In junior high school (but not in class) I learned the puppies one as:

ABCD puppies?
LMNO Puppies.
OSMR!
CMPN?

Not too different from the above, but a little.

Eye have a spelling chequer
It came with my pea sea
It plainly marques four my revue
Miss steaks eye kin knot sea.
Eye strike a key and type a word
And weight for it to say
Weather eye am wrong oar write
It shows me strait a weigh.
As soon as a mist ache is maid
It nose bee fore two long
And eye can put the error rite
Its rare lea ever wrong.
Eye have run this poem threw it
I am shore your pleased two no
Its letter perfect awl the weigh
My chequer tolled me sew!

been floating around the net and in print since before I ever used a computer. I read it in the late 60's or early 70's - tho' at that time I don't think the second line was there. I first remember it in regards to the "smart" typewriters that would beep when you mispelled a word.

OMLE, what XTC
I always feel when UIC!
I used to rave of LN's eyes,
4 LC I gave countless sighs,
4 KT 2 and LNR
I was a keen competitor;
But each vows a non-NTT—
4 UXL them all, UC.
