Dearest Tom, what a beautiful Labrador Retriever you are! You're so pretty with that glossy black fur that looks so soft. Thank you for sharing that great photo with us! You're clearly enjoying something very tasty to eat, as your dear young friend looks on. You live with your family at home, and you love to play with your friend and his/her brother. You have the most delightful personality! You love to play hide and seek. You love water, and you're a perfect swimmer! When you walk outside with your person, you love to find things. If you do something very well, you get an award. You're very pretty and very clever and very friendly, and you're always laughing. You and your dear friend love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Tom, on being chosen Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear person and brother 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.
