Dearest Buddy, what a beautiful Labby guy you are! You're absolutely adorable, there in that pool with your big smile as you wait for the water to fill it up from the hose. You have the most delightful personality, too! I'm so very sorry you had such an awful early life as a young puppy, but I'm so very glad and grateful that at age five months you were rescued and brought HOME by your terrific true person! Now you are living the delightful life you deserve, and always deserved, and you're the real love-bug you were always meant to be. You and your dear person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Buddy, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends, all the neighborhood kids and dogs, are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite games and treats.

Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
