Dearest Sammy, what a beautiful girl you are, and aren't you stylin' with those pink ears and blue tail! You have the sweetest smile, too. And what a story you have to tell! You were a stray roaming the streets when you were spotted and rescued, and then you and your dear Furrrever person came together. What a deep bond you two have formed! You are his/her emotional support, there with her/him through the good times and hard times. You love to cuddle and to sneak into bed with him/her (even though you aren't supposed to get on the bed!). You and your dear person love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Sammy, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and all your family and friends 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.
