Dearest Dina, what a beautiful Miniature Pinscher you are! You have sleek, pretty black and brown fur and the sweetest face with those lovely big eyes. Your dear young friend feeds you every day, and you play together after she/he gets home from school. You love your rope toy, so much that you destroyed the old one and your people had to buy you another. You and your dear young friend love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Dina, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear young friend 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.
