Dearest Phoebe, you are utterly phabulous indeed! What a beautiful young lady you are, with that gorgeous brown and white fur that looks so soft, and that sweet face with those lovely big brown eyes. You are so cute in all those great photos, and thank you for sharing them with us. And what a terrific story you have to tell! You became a member of your family after friends of theirs got a surprise litter from their dog. You're nine months old now, and you are enjoying life with your dear big sister Lily very much. You love to stalk her slowly and then run and pounce on her. You're full of energy, and you make your dear people smile when you zoom all around the house. You all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Phoebe, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear Lily and people 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.
