Dear Alpha Mom,

I’m worried we’re all going to die.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

Dearest Molly,

Oh dear, what now?

Love, Carolyn

Dear Alpha Mom,

This is a dangerous time of year.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

Dearest Molly,

For any particular reason?  Or are you just worrying in general?

Love, Carolyn

Dear Alpha Mom,

It’s Thunder Time.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

Dearest Molly,

Oh Sweetie, you’re worried about the Fourth of July fireworks. They’re not going to hurt us.

Love, Carolyn

Dear Alpha Mom,

You say that every year, but they keep coming back. Every year. I don’t understand why you are not alarmed.

Your Best Dog,

Molly

Dearest Molly,

I’m not alarmed because they never get close enough to hurt us.  Honey, the cats aren’t worried, and you shouldn’t be either.

Love, Carolyn

Dear Alpha Mom,

The cats aren’t worried because they’re cats.  What do they know?   I’m more concerned about you because you should be alarmed.  This is a security issue.  This could be the year the thunder reaches us.

Your Best Dog

Molly

Dearest Molly,

I’m grateful that you do enough worrying for all of us.  Meanwhile I’ll just have to figure out a way to soundproof a closet so you can sleep through the fireworks.

Love, Carolyn

Dear Alpha Mom,

What kind of solution is that??????    As humans go you are the best, but you would make a terrible security dog.

Your Best Dog

Molly
