Dearest Lucy Belle, you are utterly adorable! What a beautiful, sweet, precious Beagle lady you are! What a wonderful wedding present you were for your dear parents, and what a story you have to tell! You were a "test" dog at a vet school and were scheduled for surgery and then euthanasia that day. Just in time, your dear auntie-to-be whisked you away in her backpack and home to your new wonderful permanent people and life! You've definitely gotten used to the finer things in life. You are full of energy and affection, and you and your dear people all love each other very much, don't you. What a delightful love-filled home you share!
Congratulations, darling Lucy Belle, on being chosen today's Dog of the Day! We hope you and your dear parents and auntie 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.
