Ahem, Ms Hannah here to introduce herself to the most handsome, Buddy, if he is inclined to appreciate the qualities of a mature Princess Cockapoo. Probably we should first compare notes on appropriation technique, as I definitely have a few that I could share.

Buddy, I would love to spend some quality time with you, but since we both are favoring of the cooler weather, it is far more beneficial for you to come to Illinois than for me to go to Las Vegas where I've heard the temperatures can make a Polar Dog such as myself melt. I will gladly supervise and instruct you in all that is necessary to gain the title of Polar Dog.

Buddy, I must congratulate you on the honor of being Dog of the Day. Knowing that poodle/cocker qualities are the finest, I can't say that it was a very difficult decision for Mayors Karen and Paul to select you. But as I gaze longingly at your picture, I would have to submit that even among cockapoos you are a standout. So, Buddy Darling, I shall be waiting to hear from you when all the hoopla around your celebrity status has died down.

She Who Must Be Obeyed
