But mom, our water dishes are empty. No birds were taking a bath. It’s not like we’ve been drinking toilet water.

Wish I had my sunglasses. So you’ve said a hundred times. For the 4th time, shall we cross the road now or not? Never mind. I’m crossing now.

What? No bowls in the house?

Do these

wrinkles

make me

look old?

You said, “Sit.” You did not say where.

I don’t have bad hair days.

I don’t have much hair.

Where is that green ball? My person threw it over here. Maybe he wants the ice cream all to himself. Gotta find that ball before the ice cream’s all gone.“Here ball, come to doggie.”

I’m telling you, it was a sea monster. Sprang at me from the sea as I was chasing the water. It was black with a red face and the longest arms I’ve ever seen. My mum’s got a picture. You just wait. Some day you will see it too and no one will believe you.

I wasn’t getting into the water. I was washing my paws so that I don’t track mud into the house. You are letting me into the house. Aren’t you?
