Dear Santa,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Now that’s out of the way, I would like to applaud you for the awesome gig you have going – I believe you have it all figured out. Here’s why:
- You are loved by children everywhere.
- You are around a large amount of toys (including tennis balls!).
- When you give away toys, you receive cookies (commonly referred to in dog vernacular as “treats”).
Which leads me to something that I have been wondering about and which I’m hoping you’ll be able to confirm for me. You see, I believe you and I share the same treat philosophy and that your name, Santa, is an acronym for said treat philosophy. Am I correct?
Savory
Appetizing
Never enough
Tantalizing
Awesome
Perhaps this is a secret you’d like to keep, along with how your reindeer fly.
Fair enough.
But there is one thing that completely bewilders me. How on earth can you give away a tennis ball?
Sincerely,
Grady Buford Huntley
P.S. A heads up. Dawson, who flies through the agility course and everything else requiring movement, has always been intrigued by flying reindeer, and, using his formidable knowledge of physics, is very close to cracking the code. The flying reindeers’ time is limited.
