I see you have a sweet roll. I too enjoy sweet rolls. Are you really gonna eat that with me watching? Because you know I can do the “soulful eyes” look, right? And if that isn’t enough I can toss in some whimpering. You can’t endure that. You know it and I know it. So… you gonna eat that?

Sender-inner N. Fritz adds: “The lockdown measures are bringing people and pets together across the world. Case in point, an old friend contacted me after many years and sent me this picture of Ivan, a husky mutt mix.”

I don’t know what came over me. I had no idea there was even such a thing as “formal dress flip-flops” and if I did I certainly wouldn’t have chewed them. I promise to never, ever do that again for as long as I can remember.

Whenever a dog wants something, she looks up with those big soulful eyes, and you know right then that whatever she wants, she’ll have it.
