The "ARF" Word!

You know how much I like getting my hair done, right? And how my very BFF, Madison, is there and we play and visit and just hang out? Well, we got there this morning and I was SOOOOO excited to get inside Miss Marilyn's Puppy Day Spa (really called "Prime Cuts") that my feet were racing before we even opened the door.

"Madison...MADISON!", I said, all excited and stuff. I got down and sniffed her, her cushion, her piddle pad, her food dish, her water, and then I ran over to play with her, just like I always do.

"RRR...rr...ARF!", she snapped. "Huh?", I asked? Like...this is NOT how you talk to your friends, not even your best friend...not even your WORST friend. Madison just looked at me and didn't even say "Sorry!".

Marilyn told her that wasn't very nice of her and apologized for her. I ran and hid behind my mom's ankles. I am truly devastated by this. My heart is broken and my ears are down. Even my tail stopped wagging, which it NEVER stops hardly ever.

Marilyn told me that Madison was having an "off" day and had been grumpy all morning, and that I shouldn't take it personally. Well, hello? Of course I take it personally. I'm not a mind reader and I have absolutely no idea what went on before I got there.

Words hurt forever and you can't take them back. I wish she'd bitten me instead. At least THAT would heal. Words pierce your heart for absolutely always.

We'll probably make up later, but right now I am sooooo depressed I want to cry.

Sorrowfully yours,

Mary-Margaret O'Brien

PS: Here's my before and after pictures. I know it's hard to tell the difference but I feel like a new pup. I surprised Miss Marilyn by keeping my Fourth of July bow in for four whole weeks. Can you see my new one? It's my favorite color - purple - and it has little puppy feet on it.

I'm so sorry that you were snapped at. You are such a nice sweet girl, and fun too. I don't know how anyone could be mean to you.

Mary-Margaret, she must have been having a very bad day. I just don't understand how anypuppy could ever snap at you!
Love, Sausha

Hello Gorgeous!

So sorry your BFF had an off day but that is no excuse for her to behave like that... :-(
I'm sending extra LOVE in hopes that you will forget about the injustice.
BTW you look absolutely amazing in both: Before & After.

Loving youuu,
Neeko :-)
