Dearest Lewis, you are absolutely gorgeous! What a wonderful reindeer you are, ready to lead Santa through the skies to visit all the children around the world and bring them gifts! And of course you're doing that, as you are a true Christmas dog, born on Christmas eve! You are full of energy, a handful as a puppy but now at nearly four years old an absolute delight. You make your dear people smile with all your antics. You and they and your three kitty and two horsie housemates all love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Lewis, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear people and kitties and horsies 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.
