Dearest Sophie, what a beautiful Collie-mix lady you are! You are absolutely gorgeous relaxing in the grass outside your wonderful home with the pretty flowers behind you. I am so very glad and grateful that your terrific family-to-be rescued you in just the very nick of time! You looked so sad then, but now you are one very happy doggie, living the wonderful life you deserve (and always deserved!) with them and your two doggie and two kitty housemates. You all love each other very much, don't you. You're so very gentle and sweet, they cannot imagine life without you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Sophie, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear people and kitties and doggies and all your family and friends are enjoying a fine celebration, full of fun and lovies and all your favorite treats and games, perhaps even some new toys to chew on!

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