Dearest Roxy, you are adorable! What a pretty little Cardigan Welsh Corgi you are, so cute standing there in the grass so alert. You have the most delightful personality, too. You are full of energy and make your dear people smile with all your antics. You are quite the accomplished thief, and you have a great stash pile outside full of your favorite treasures (socks, remote controls, best toys, etc.).
You came to join your family to comfort them in their grief at the loss of their beloved Cordy puppy, Bling, to a birth defect. You have helped them learn to smile again, and we know that Bling Angel is looking down from the Rainbow Bridge with love and joy for them and you. You and your dear people all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Roxy, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear people are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats. We know that Bling Angel and all the Angels are rejoicing with you at the Bridge!
I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
