Oh my gosh, dearest Dezi, just look at that face! What an utterly gorgeous German Shepherd you are, with that brown and black fur and those lovely big brown eyes. And what a delightful personality you have, too! You've been your dear person's best friend for thirteen years now, ever since you were eight weeks old. You're a veteran traveler, having moved with him/her from Massachusetts to California and then back. You love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Dezi, on being chosen 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.
