Positive Thinking

Dear Alpha Mom,

I love my coat.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

I know you do. It looks lovely on you. And stylish. Animal prints are very fashionable.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

Actually I like it because it’s warm.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

That’s very practical of you. I’m glad you’re feeling so positive today. Especially with the weather becoming too warm for a coat. Normally you’d be moaning about that.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

What are you getting at?

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

Well, you usually tend to have a negative outlook. It’s just nice to see you love something.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

I love a lot of things.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly

I’m so glad to hear that. Like what?

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

I like it when I’m running down the hall with the cats, and Alpha Dad exclaims “What’s going on here?!!!!

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly

That does sound like fun. What else?

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

I like it that you “get” me. What if I didn’t live with someone who understood me? Though sometimes you don’t.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

Thank you sweetie. But let’s keep it positive!

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

I like my bed in the pantry. It’s like a cave.  And I like the sofa. And that sunny spot on the bedroom rug.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

Very good! And you like the mountains. You love to hike.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

Maybe not so much any more. It’s confusing now that I’m deaf. I can’t tell where everyone is.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

You’re right. That was an unfortunate incident when we got separated and you couldn’t hear us calling you. I was so relieved when we found you!

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

I like it when you forget to put the cover on the compost pile.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

 

Dearest Molly,

I wish you wouldn’t eat compost.

Love, Carolyn

 

Dear Alpha Mom,

See, now you’re the one being negative.

Your Best Dog,

Molly
