Celebrity

Dear Alpha Mom,
Mia says that I’m a celebrity.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
That’s lovely, Sweetie. And what is she basing this on?
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
She says I won Cutest Dog.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
That’s right, you did!
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
I don’t remember this.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
It was years ago, at a Humane Society fundraiser. You were voted Cutest Dog.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
Well. That’s an achievement. Too bad I can’t remember it.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
You were adorable. It came down to you and another dog. The audience had to clap for their favorite, and the numbers were even. So the lady with the microphone asked if either of you had a special cute trick. To tip the balance.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
And I did something cute?
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
You did! You danced. Remember how you used to pirouette on command?
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
I do remember!
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
Well you did it! You stood on your hind legs and spun around, and your pirouette made the audience go wild. They all voted for you. It was a wonderful moment. Too bad you can’t do that any more. With your bad knee your dancing days are over.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
What did the other dog do?
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
Who knows. Who cares? He didn’t win!
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
And he’s been forgotten. Meanwhile I don’t even remember winning.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
Dearest Molly,
That’s sad.
Love, Carolyn
Dear Alpha Mom,
That’s life.
Your Best Dog,
Molly
