Dearest Pearl, you are absolutely gorgeous! What a stunning Australian Shepherd lady you are, with that fluffy colorful coat and that sweet face with what I'm sure are lovely big eyes behind those shades! You're all dressed up, or down, for an afternoon by the pool. You're a terrific fashion model of a dog! Your dear people can dress you up in anything, and you settle into your pose as soon as the camera comes out. You're very intelligent, and you know many tricks. You're a great guard dog, sounding the alarm the minute anyone, no matter who, comes to the door. You sleep with your dear person, and you wake her/him up at six in the morning to go out to potty. You're spoiled to the core, and she/he says you're the best dog ever. You love each other very much, don't you. What a wonderful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Pearl, 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.
I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.
