An sometime dez peoples be sayin som'em, I ain't quite figured out what yet. But, man, all yous gotta do is bow or sit or heck jus' lay down an' dey give ya more food. An' dey look soo happy 'bout it too! Des is great.
Yoous guys need to remember dis word, "Treat". Memorize it 'cause wenever peoples say dis word, you get food. An dez people look soo happy to give food. Wow! Dez is Greyt!
Yestaday, all of us got water sprayed all over us. Now, I knows what ya thinkin' I ain't never liked no water neither, cepting for drinkin. But dis water was really nice. It was all warm an dey rubbed me all over. It was like heaven! I was soo relaxed I slid down onto da flo. No kiddin! Den dey rubbed me with this warm soft thing and I wasn't wet anymore, but I felt great! An dey gave me more food! Sumthin 'bout being a 'good boy' an did I wanna 'treat'!! H$*L Yeah! Treats is FOOD!
An' hey, I got dis really big soff ding to lay on. It is sooo comfy. Iz can fix it any way I wanna. I dink dey callin' it a beed. Retirerment is nice.
Ya know dos dings ya been chasin' but dey neva let ya catch'em? Dez peoples gave me 2 of 'em! Can ya believe it! Dey are great! I jus' bite'em an bite'em an dey make dis sqeeky sound. I jus love to hear dat sound. I throw 'em an den I run an I catch'em an den I bite'em. One of 'em ain't squeekin' too much no mo. I'm keepin' it wiff me on my beed.
We got this big place outside. Ders a lotta grass an not much dirt but it is so fun to run and run and run. Dez people get so excited wen I run. It makes me sooo happy. Dis mornin' der was dis furry din with long ears in the grass. I almos got 'em but he hopped under da fence. I'll get him tomorraw.
Oh, gotta go! I hear my name. If I hurry, I'll get a TREAT!!!!

Heya, Dash. This is Extramile. Lotsa food here to but I think I have to work a little harder for it. The xpen is my fave & they gave me something called a comforter that I really love. There's a crate with a bed in it I use sometimes too. The yard's my favorite. I walk over to the door, look out & people come runnin' to let me out. Repeat process to come back in. It's like havin' my own personal servents. Here's to retirement. Have you heard about forever homes yet? We're supposed to get them soon. We're too great for people to pass up for very long.
Dear Dash,
This is Bruno and I'm retired, too. I found my forever home and you're going to love it. My brother Hoover is retired, too and we rest most of the day, then we play with squeakies, the people take us for walks, and they give us treats when we're being "good boys" (which is most of the time!).
The cool thing about us greyhounds is that we know how to be good boys and girls, and we also know how to make people very, very happy. That means more treats, which makes me very, very happy.
This is the life!
Your pal,
Bruno
Dash,
I hope those treats are still coming!
