That's the thing about being born a Labrador Retriever—you were born for fun. Seldom was your loopy, free-wheeling mind cluttered by contemplation, and never at all by somber worry; every day was a romp. What else could there possibly be to life? Eating was a thrill…And everywhere you went were gullible human beings who patted and hugged and fussed over you. - from "Sick Puppy"
