Thanks for being my number one cuddle buddy! There's nothing better than coming home and being greeted by you. I love walking into my room and finding you on my bed or lying down on the couch and being joined by you. I envy all of the free time you have to just lay around and make people smile!
I hope your treats have been good lately. I love spoiling you with treats and not telling Mom and Dad. What do they taste like? They don't smell as great as you make them out to be. And what's the deal with that "doggy ice cream" you always eat on birthdays? Does it taste like the vanilla ice cream you've probably licked off of the floor when you're sniffing around during dessert time?
Why is it that we used to buy you so many toys when you're really just infatuated with your one favorite? I know everyone has a favorite toy, but they still play with there other ones! What even attracted you to that slinky, stretchy "Pup" toy? We've bought you so many other cool toys, like that Darth Vader plush!
When you seem to be barking at nothing, what are you actually barking at? I don't see any dogs, there are no people, and it's relatively quiet out there, so I'm relatively confused. Also, when you yelp in pain but are fine to run across the house for a treat, is it more of a cry for attention that it is in pain? You're quite confusing at times.
I want to thank you for being the best listener I've ever met, though. Sometimes, I have to lock you in my room to get you to listen, but for the most part once I grab your ear, you'll stick around. You give the best kisses after a long day, and sometimes to just curl up with you is all I need.
You never fail to fill our home with laughter. It seems that all of the tricks we've taught you have blurred together. For instance, when we say "shake," your immediate instinct is to throw your head down, lay there, and half roll over. I guess you know you're getting a treat either way. You're always doing something of interest, whether it's running laps around the house, digging at the carpet for no reason, or even just lying around looking cute.
You rock your bandanas and neck-ties, by the way. Your fashion sense is impeccable. Tell whoever picks them out to keep up the good work!
With much love,
Your very grateful owner
