Dearest Chili, what a beautiful Golden Retriever you are! You are so pretty rolling around there, with that fluffy coat and that sweet face with the great big smile and those dark eyes full of happiness. And you are just as delightful as you look! You've been with your dear family ever since you were a puppy, some thirteen years now, and you're still a puppy at heart! You're such a goofball, as sweet as brown sugar. You love napping in the sun and then having a good roll in the grass. You and all your family members love each other very much, don't you. As they say, "..our lives are knit together with golden threads from his coat, like little shed pieces of enthusiasm, in our carpets, as well as our hearts." What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Chili, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats!
P.S., there is a store here in Ann Arbor called "Dear Golden." I've wondered about the name, but now I think it must have been named for you!
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.
